Canadian GPW also came with blue interior at one time -- a stunning combination that the US missed out on.

It stands for "Arctic Braking System". When you step hard on the brakes, they go "Eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh .........................".

You guys are forgetting the biggest difference, the performance! US models top out at like 155, and I heard Canadian models will go like 250!!!
