We do not pay more for cars in Canada when you consider such things as cost of living and mean income. In fact even though our dollar value appears higher we actually pay considerably less for things than they do in the USA. It seems like we pay more but we also make more so it all balances out.

In Kanada our dollar is usually down up to 30 percent and has one of the highest personal income, sales, gas, etc. taxes in the world.
Kommie Kanada even charges tax on tax !
Balance out ?
Maybe for rich people.
