Yeah, there's an interesting dynamic on this forum. There are those of us who feel it's a public place to openly express our opinions, feedback and share our love of the car and there are those of us who have a "Tesla can do no wrong" mentality. The honest truth is by sheltering them and shaming people that give feedback, you aren't helping them become better and ultimately successful. If I wasn't open-minded and couldn't see the bigger picture, I wouldn't own a Tesla. The key to their real success is convincing the rest of the not open-minded public that they make sense to purchase. Tesla knows advertising doesn't accomplish this and the only real way to sell EVs is independent interaction with actual EV owners, it's exactly this reason why they have a referral program and I'd guess their metrics prove that when the referral program is increased, it leads to increased sales. Notably, this comes at times when we expect Tesla is pushing for sales, so again we can conclude that it works. Some may have missed my intended and (evidently not clear enough) over the top exaggeration with the naming of this thread and the way I callously expressed my point but the point itself is valid; if Tesla increases USA referrals, it only makes sense to increase Canada as well. It's not really about the $51, it's that I do care about their success and I just don't get why they would do it there and not here. When you're trying to grow a brand in a foreign market, the last thing you want is for that market to get a perceived opinion that they don't matter.
However, all that said, yes, I will gladly take your $10 bucks.
