Tesla North America posted the news on X on the evening of November 12. The program launched in the U.S. on October 29.
Canadian Tesla owners can now use the FSD referral program that launched south of the border two weeks ago. In a post on X at 8:28 PM ET on November 12, 2026, Tesla North America quoted its original U.S. announcement and wrote: "Now available in Canada 🇨🇦 & Mexico 🇲🇽".
On the evening of November 12, Tesla North America quoted its October 29 referral post on X and added: "Now available in Canada 🇨🇦 & Mexico 🇲🇽" (Tesla North America on X). That's the whole announcement. Tesla didn't post separate Canadian terms with it.
Tesla North America: "Now available in Canada 🇨🇦 & Mexico 🇲🇽"
Tesla's original post lays it out: "Refer friends & family to gift them a month of FSD Supervised" and "Once they subscribe, you'll receive a free month in return (or $99 in Tesla Credits if bought outright)" (Tesla North America on X). Tesla links the full terms from its referral program page. That page wouldn't load for us this morning, so we're not repeating eligibility limits or annual caps second-hand. Check the Tesla app or Tesla's page for the Canadian fine print before you share a link.
Tesla Canada lists FSD (Supervised) at $99 a month. Tesla says the feature requires active driver supervision and doesn't make the car autonomous (Tesla Canada). A free month from a friend is a way to try it on Canadian roads before paying for a subscription.
When the program launched, we reported it was U.S.-only. That has now changed. For how FSD works here, see our FSD in Canada guide.

Tesla's order page shows an estimated December 2026 delivery in Austin, Texas. The car only works in supported service areas, and nothing in the announcement mentions Canada.
The change would take effect November 13 under the proposal, but Parliament still has to pass it. Gas, diesel and other vehicles would stay at $100,000.
The company's Canadian website still doesn't name a model or an on-sale date. A China-built ET would not meet Transport Canada's EVAP origin rule.
