Episode Notes Two protesters from Last Generation Canada were arrested Wednesday morning after spraying paint on the facade of the Montreal-Ferrier TESLA dealership. Laura Sullivan, a spokesperson for the climate action group, told CKUT that the protest took aim at billionaires in general, and Elon Musk in particular. Once thought of as an environmentalist for his electric vehicle manufacturing, Musk has helped US President Donald Trump gut environmental agencies in the US government. SPVM spokesperson Veronique Dubuc told reporters the protesters were charged with vandalism, and were released with conditions. They will stand before a judge in May.
