Tesla Canada says its shady $43 million incentive grab was a misunderstanding

They got caught, so it’s all a big misunderstanding

It's always a joke, a misunderstanding or taken out of context, isn't it? Unless it's the other tribe that's doing it - then it must be interpreted literally, is completely inexcusable and requires the most severe punishment that can be administered while furiously pearl-clutching...

Tesla is claiming they filed previously unfiled sales once the announcement was made that the program was close to running out of money. However:
One Tesla locations in particular, Quebec City, claimed 4,000 rebates over the course of a weekend, which is physically impossible for a location of that size, and represents about a ~20x spike in daily deliveries for the location. Another location in Etobicoke reportedly claimed 2,528 rebates over the weekend, which is more than all the rebates that location had previously claimed combined.
It's obviously just a lie to suggest these staggering numbers were past sales unfiled. Especially since tesla gives no details, and proceeds to threaten the government with legal action. This also fails to explain how their sales were so close to the amount left in the fund - mentioned in initial reporting but not here.
Tesla stole $43M from a government subsidy fund by faking thousands of sales.

They tried to, but I think they were caught before they actually got the money.
