i guess they figure if the JDM is not allowed to 'stay' in Canada the private importers will get scared and stop importing...we will see.
Wayne, i just don't understand why TC people are being pricks about this little subculture (well maybe not little anymore)...are they just ignorant and misinformed?? doesn't say in ivoac why they want to stomp on this. yes i'd like to exercise my freedom to choose what vehicle to drive (and choose to hopefully find a more environmentally friendly way to fuel it), but why is the gov't so against it? are they being influenced by local n. american car dealerships?? are sales getting affected by jdm's??

and now this "soil" BS?! is that really valid? i think ships and zebra mussels are a much bigger issue....look at lake simcoe..

all this makes me worry about how far veggie oil systems/home made fuel will go in the future, even tho it's great for the environment/carbon neutral, i'm sure the gov't will find some stupid reason to ban it....

like you said, we'll see....
