The cynic in me is saying they simply forgot to add a delay to Calgary and will add one at the next update in October. Would be such a Rivian thing to do, because its fucking weird Ontario is getting pushed when it's further along in development than Calgary.
Seems like a lot of Ontario folks are getting pushed back. 3-4 others on the facebook group have reported the same so far. Not good news for you guys...

Nobody wants to use NACS because it's better, they want to use NACS to make a deal with Tesla for Supercharger access. NACS without supercharger access is pointless because all the 3rd-party chargers will still be the same unreliable mess.
Volvo Cars NL has just announced deliveries have been delayed again until the end of 2024. Not a good omen considering Europe usually get the cars first. Are we looking at 2025 here?
