Well don't quote me, but I believe the reason it hasn't made it up here yet is because it failed one of the specific front bumper crash tests that Canada has, but the US doesn't. I can't recall the specific test that it failed, but I sure hope they can fix the issue so we can see this beautiful car up here!

yeah, i actually found out that is does have to do with the front crash test. i guess the FMIC is too easily damaged in low speed accidents...and since that renders the car inoperable, it doesn't meet the standards.
