Maybe because they know that the residents are willing to spend more on an awesome AWD vehicle, especially with the snow they get? I don't know. This is what I first thought, but it would also be nice to see a comparison with a more expensive car in the US and its Canadian equivalent. For instance, if there's a car sold in the US for at least $50K and the "shafting" increase for the Canadian equivalent is less than +$8796.90 USD, then this will rule out the possibility that the "shafting" simply increases with a vehicle's value.

[But even if there is an example of this ^, it probably isn't as simple an explanation for the jump in pricing difference.]
