Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland says the federal government is pausing payments to be made to Tesla under Ottawa 's subsidy program.

Freeland also barred the company from future rebates in other programs until the threat of U.S. President Donald Trump ’s tariffs on Canada is withdrawn.

Tesla filed 8,653 rebate claims over a 72-hour span in January shortly before the program was set to end.
