Canadians drive on the same side of the road as the USA.
And we don't live in igloos either. Our Cdn Mounted Police do carry guns. Polar bears do find their way into some peoples' yards but this is rare and not common. We do, however, use metric measurements.

Your closest RHD would likely be the UK or Japan, but you have to check on the legalities of importing such a car. You may even have to check on the legalities of converting the car in this way.

a lot of people swap out firewalls, thats the "easiest" way. you basically need a whole front clip so that you can take everything that you need like the lines pedal ass. brakebooster.

But I think it would be a pain cause then you still have you gas lever on the left. Im pretty sure there is a fix to that

Good luck if you do it.

... seems like converting to RHD would cost a pretty penny and be a major PITA to do. I would just look into importing one if you want it that bad, but honestly, I think the novelty will wear off pretty fast and it won't be worth the money or the fact that driving on the left side isn't the smartest thing to do when you drive on the right side of the road.

I think we've established the baseline for that
