Class action suit against car-making companies
<quote>
A B.C. class action lawsuit claims some big car-making companies are trying to restrict your right to buy a car from the United States. The lawsuit names manufacturers like Toyota, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo.
...
MacDonald says depending on make and model, you might end up paying up to 50% more for a car in Canada compared to the United States. He points out similar lawsuits have already been successful in Europe.

Not gonna happen easily. Im just waiting to see what CDN companies do...
Lexus is offering MASSIVE discounts to the point of matching the USD prices in Canada. Very surprising if you ask me, considering thats a 20K+ discount on higher end vehicles in their lineup.
