Why do cars cost so much more in Canada?

Question

Now that the doller is the same as the US the price should be the same. Why are cars 30% more here? Someone is ripping use off big. Its not just cars.

Its even on cars that are made here and sent to the US.

Answer 1

I am only guessing.
Are there laws in Canada that would require different equipment on the cars than in the US?
Is there a tax that must be paid to take cars into Canada or an inspection fee?
Maybe the prices have simply not adjusted from when the Canadian dollar was valued below the US dollar?
I could be totally wrong, but this is what came to mind.

Answer 2

Inflation?
