Tesla Takedown - Montréal
Start: Saturday, June 28, 2025•11:00 AM
Background
The largest source of Elon's wealth comes from Tesla (ref: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2024/02/01/elon-musk-wealth-net-worth-companies/). For more details see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-Imw_s1aaI
Protesting reduces Tesla's stock price (refs: https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-stock-price-drops-growing-anti-elon-musk-protests-tariffs-2025-3, https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c4g4zp3z1p3o, https://www.newsweek.com/tesla-stock-dive-takedown-protest-2052974). Reducing Tesla's stock price reduces Elon's wealth, which reduces his political influence (ref: https://www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/archive/2025/03/elon-musk-wisconsin-million-dollar-payments/682248/). This in turn reduces his ability to harm (for a list of harms see: https://www.teslatakedown.com/_files/ugd/26ad6e_107212ae19b04b9395a39ee21f9a9a4f.pdf) and reduces the likelihood of similar things happening in Canada (some Tech CEOs want a DOGE for Canada: https://thetyee.ca/News/2025/02/28/Tech-CEOs-DOGE-Canada/).
This Event
Elon Musk is out at DOGE, but our fight for democracy is far from over!
Elon is still deeply tied to individuals influencing the Trump regime, still fueling conspiracies and fascist rhetoric, and still using his immense wealth to warp government policy and influence elections around the globe.
On June 28 (Elon Musk’s birthday) we’re throwing our biggest day of action yet. We'll make it an unforgettable show of our collective strength and a recommitment to the long fight still ahead.
And our birthday gift? A global party with one powerful message: Musk Must Fall.
This is going to be one huge party! Join us
June 28 for a massive, global celebration of grassroots power—and send
Elon and his buddies a clear message that we will hold him accountable.
Bring your party gear, protest signs, snacks, and music!
