Canada's Tesla Problem: Curbside Commentary and the Musk Effect 

Is Tesla’s Brand Becoming a Liability? The Logic suggests that Tesla owners in Canada are facing unwanted attention, not for their cars, but for Elon Musk. This raises a fascinating question: has Musk’s persona become a detriment to the Tesla brand? Are potential buyers being turned off, and are current owners experiencing a sort of buyer’s remorse due to the CEO’s public image? I’m curious to hear from the community: how much does the CEO’s personality influence your purchasing decisions, especially with a product as visible and statement-making as a Tesla? Could we be witnessing the beginning of a brand detachment, where the product is judged independently from its creator? This article paints a picture of Canada, but I wonder if this sentiment is spreading globally. Share your thoughts and experiences. Is this a Canadian phenomenon, or the canary in the coal mine for Tesla’s brand image worldwide? I predict this will become an increasingly important discussion as Tesla continues to grow.
