At first, Tesla also did not mention that it was building a plant in California. But, the plant in that state is already operating. This means that the residents of Canada could soon see the new battery factory of the giant American automaker.

Markham's mayor also stated that the upcoming battery plant would be located in South of Hwy 7 West of Warden. In his latest tweet, many residents already shared their excitement with the new plant of Elon Musk.

In other news, a new Tesla Gigafactory is also rumored to be built in China. On the other hand, Tesla Giga Berlin now faces some delays.
