Canadian Legislation and Regulatory Roundup

Canada and the United States have their fair share of differences, but what separates Canada from the United States isn’t nearly as significant as the similarities that unite them.

One of those similarities is a love of cars, racing and the car culture.  It is that bond that brought the SAN to Canada in 2007 and is the reason we work with great organizations, such as the National Association of Automobile Clubs of Canada (NAACC), to promote and protect the hobby there. 

The SAN remains dedicated to supporting the Canadian car hobby, and we will continue to look for opportunities to make a difference for enthusiasts north of the border. Please encourage all your Canadian friends and car club members to join the SEMA Action Network (SAN).

The Canadian Legislative and Regulatory Roundup is a comprehensive listing of legislation and regulations, both current and from years past, that impact the automotive hobby in Canada.
