Please just give:

Cars with buttons and dials. No touch screens other than maybe a GPS exclusive screen.

Cars that can be fixed relatively easily.

Safety(Cars aren't really safe, but its what we have to deal with so...make them smaller with clear lines of sight, etc).

These are my dreams, I guess. I doubt you can honestly get anything close to that in 2026. Also as if I would be able to afford anything new when cost of living has skyrocketed lol.

Cars that can handle the winter weather, traction control and ground clearance

Heated everything

US automakers broke their deals on running factories here. We have no native auto brands (other than attempted startups) building factories.

No need to protect US brand pricing anymore, let’s make cars affordable to Canadians

And it's only a limited quantity allowed in, like 10% of the market.

No it is Canada's duty to protect the sacred North American institutions of F150 and Ram /s
