Canada Crushes Tesla's Supercharger Voting: Courtenay & Banff Score New EV Juice!

TL;DR: Canada just had a mic-drop moment in Tesla's Q3 Supercharger Voting! Courtenay, BC, and Banff, Alberta, emerged as global winners, securing brand-new Supercharger stations. Looks like Canadian EV drivers know how to rally their votes!

Meta: Canada cleaned up in Tesla's Q3 2025 Supercharger voting, with Courtenay, BC, and Banff, Alberta, scoring new charging stations, showing EV drivers up north are making their voices heard!

Alright, alright, settle down now! You know, sometimes you gotta vote to get what you want, and Canadian Tesla owners just showed the world how it's done! Tesla dropped the results for its Q3 2025 Supercharger Voting, and guess who’s topping the global leaderboard? That's right, two Canadian communities: Courtenay, British Columbia, and Banff, Alberta! They're getting brand-new Supercharger installations, because when you want juice for your EV, you gotta make some noise!

This is big news, especially for those Vancouver Island folks. Courtenay winning means a long-standing charging gap north of Nanaimo is finally getting filled. And Banff? Oh, Banff is gonna be even sweeter for EV road-trippers, strengthening one of the most popular travel corridors in the Rocky Mountains. Both locations are now officially 'In Development' on Tesla’s map. It’s like a surprise party, but instead of cake, you get high-speed charging! And let’s be honest, in the EV world, that’s way better than cake.

Canadian Pride: Beyond Quebec's Dominance

For a while there, it seemed like Quebec was hogging all the Supercharger voting wins, like that one friend who always picks the best snacks. But this round, BC and Alberta stepped up, showing that EV adoption is booming across the country. They joined a global list of winners, from Turkey to Japan, proving that Tesla's crowd-sourced approach is really getting those chargers where they're needed most. It’s democracy in action, but for electric cars!

And if that wasn't enough, Tesla also dropped the proposed locations for Q4 2025 voting, and Canada’s got a huge list, coast to coast. BC and Alberta are still on the board, along with plenty of options for Ontario and Quebec. Even Yukon's making its first appearance with two spots! Sadly, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Newfoundland & Labrador didn't make the Q4 list, but hey, there’s always next round! It's like a never-ending buffet of charging possibilities.

What’s Next?

Keep an eye on Courtenay and Banff for updates as those Supercharger sites move from 'In Development' to 'Open for Business.' For the rest of Canada, get your votes ready for the Q4 2025 round! This community-driven expansion is crucial for building out a truly comprehensive EV charging network. Every vote helps bring us closer to a fully electric future, making road trips smoother and range anxiety a thing of the past.

So go on, cast those votes, Canada! Make your voice heard, or your car might just run out of juice! Ha!
