Same car.
Before ridiculous Canadian tax.
The car companies are also trying to say that some safety or anti-theft component is different between the US and Canadian models so the US ones are 'unsafe' to import (legal issue, but total and complete BS!). Trying to prevent cross-border shopping to prop up thieving Canadian dealers.

Just did a quick check with Toyota Mexico vs. Toyota USA....the base corolla in Mexico is $3k more expensive.
Edit: Toyota Canada and Toyota USA's base prices are basically exact. Accounting for the difference in dollars now, you pay ~$1,500 more for that Corolla. How much is the sales tax in Canada, btw? Is it setup different for each...uh, territory? (dunno what you call 'em), or is it a flat nationwide Sales tax?
