• Our immediate goal is to make sure that our friend and teammate Carl can come through with his promise to his two young children.  He promised to drive them to Disneyland prior to the holidays.  We are sure there are many anxious families with holiday plans on hold, and we want then all to enjoy this special time of the year.

•  Please ask friends and family to sign our on-line petition

Carswithoutborders was formed on November 18, 2007 in response to a recent Transport Canada anti-theft device regulation that had the impact of stopping Canadians from purchasing vehicles in the US manufactured after September 1, 2007. Since its inception, Carswithoutborders has received tremendous support across Canada and its website is now receiving over 2000 hits per day. Visit www.carswithoutborders.com and please fill out the petition to advocate fair vehicle pricing in Canada through the removal of trade restrictions. Media please contact Robert Lamb 514 697 1429 or Serge Bergeron 613 932 3341 

It appears to state that cars imported from U.S and following the U.S standard for anti-theft immobilizers is proposed to be accepted in Canada.

Thank-you to each an every member of this team for all your contributions and hard work! Stay- tuned for further updates and confirmations. See the notes below.
