Is It Time For An All-Canadian Car?

Australia does it (Holden). Sweden does it (Volvo). India does it (Tata). With the American carpocalypse freeing up all this excess production capacity in southern Ontario, is it time to launch our own all-Canadian automobile? Hell Yes! Here's what I want. First, let's set a price target of $25K on the road anywhere in Canada. Now let have a state of the art four cylinder turbo diesel for torque and fuel economy, all wheel drive for the snow, a choice of manual or automatic, four doors and a hatchback, a killer heater/defrost/aircon system, a comfortable well-made interior, and above all - a no-nonsense suspension system that will give near-sports car handling while absorbing a 10-inch deep St. John's pothole with ZERO damage. Hmm, so far I am describing the Volkswagen Tiguan and the Porsche Cayenne except for the potholes. Oh, and the price. You know I think Canadians really could beat the Germans at creating this car. Good luck Scott Paterson.
