Here is another article in the Canadian Press. This is getting some attention!

I wrote to LeAnne LaSalle and in a short email informed her of the discrepancy of pricing on made in Canada SkiDoos in both countries. I also said a very large number of SkiDoo owners would welcome a follow-up article.

That retail is higher than i was told for canada, but i also noticed that it was from march. They had some big rebates on due to the dollar and such. I paid less than the US retail for my new M8 s/p 162 and it is comin from canada.

Here is the reply that I received from the Montreal Bureau Chief:

"Thank you for your comments regarding the price of Canadian-made snowmobiles. I am going to send your email to John Valorzi, our Toronto-based business editor, and suggest we do something on this closer to the winter."

Sounds very much like lip service...

I think they just gave you the brush off. You are asking them to look into the price difference not take one for a spin and write about it. Maybe if you had a muslim name and told them you are being discriminated by BRP then they would have written something.
