It's because the population in Canada is one tenth of the USA. MUCH smaller market.... thus the higher prices. Also, taxes in Canada (to actually operate a business) are much higher than south of the border. Yet another reason why prices are much higher in Canada.

Sucks, but not really much we can do about it. Except, bartering with the salesman. Their mark-up has room to discount at least 10% off of MSRP. And at $46,000 (for example), that's around $4500 off.
