I live in Montana, about 2 hours south of the Canadian border (and my Mrs is the Book Keeper at our local Ford dealership)....Canadians can purchase USED vehicles in the U.S. but U.S dealers CANNOT sell NEW vehicles to Canadians. It has to do with international trade agreements.
some dealers will sell to Canadians. Few my buddies bought toyota, subaru,gm brand new without issue in USA Probabaly violating policy but ways around it

This has been known for a long time. Surprised its just coming up now. Made sure you check the list that transport Canada put out for what you can import and register up here(from the usa) I know a few ppl that bought vehicles in the usa and brought them back and they are now sitting in the driveway because they cant be registered here

Lol never said they were smart ppl. This was a few years ago when everyone was buying them in the us and bringing them back

This is a guess so not claiming this is a fact. Could it be tariffs? I know the japs build their cars here, not because they want to give Americans jobs, because we jacked the tariffs up on importing COMPLETED goods that it became cheaper to build their vehicles here with IMPORTED parts than to pay the tarrif.
Is there a US Import tariff in Canada that is being applied?

No there is no tarrifs. IF you can get some one to sell you new in the US you can bring up but you loose your warranty. What ever.
