“Tensions Explode as Canada Hits Back at Trump’s New Trade Move” | ELION MUSK
Through his signature mix of humor, logic, and big-picture vision, Musk explains how tariffs affect not only the economy but also the future of technology, electric vehicles, aerospace, and innovation itself.
The keynote dives into:
How trade policies disrupt innovation and supply chain
s The ripple effects on EVs, clean energy, and tech industries
Canada’s likely counter-response and long-term implications
The concept of “trade as a system,” where every policy change has network-wide consequences
Lessons in resilience, adaptation, and systems thinking
Elon Musk’s approach reframes trade tension not as a political event, but as an engineering problem — one that requires systems thinking, foresight, and creative adaptation. The speech concludes with a call to action: embrace friction as fuel for innovation, and turn complexity into progress.
