Not to nitpick, but you know that we're west of Montreal, and not North? And so we're not "up there". Technically we're on a 284 degree heading... but again, I don't want to nitpick.

Sudbury is south of Victoria and Vancouver. Think about that.
(A bit east too.)
And Sudbury is at an altitude above sea level of 348m while Montreal has an average altitude of 30m (Google says 232m but that's the peak on Mont Royal - I don't live there...Not to nitpick, but you know that we're west of Montreal, and not North?

) And as we all know, for an EV altitude is usually more important than latitude... But hey!
I took a drive over there today and they did indeed install the rest of the stalls. They are still waiting for the utility transformer install... they were having issues with it last time I was there. The foreman seemed confident it would be up and running before Christmas but we'll see... I will keep you all updated. I'm lucky my office is literally down the road from the site!

That's the altitude of the airport - which is quite a lot northeast of the city. And I don't live there either.
The supercharger is at an altitude of 270m.But... to your point, if you're implying that by "up there", we're "higher" than Montreal, then my only response is that I've visited Montreal! There are many many folks there who aren't suffering from a shortage of altitude.

Pah. I used to live even further north. But that was in the UK so doesn't really count ...
Here you go and as an update, had another chat with GSU - they were just installing the utility transformer today so the stalls and everything should be powered up TOMORROW! However, they are still waiting for the Tesla signage to be put up, so I'm thinking early next week it will be fully open to the public.
