    We already had the Canadian cultural version, 30 years ago. Americans are way behind the times.

    It was called 'The Beachcombers'.

    tundra is that land which is north of the taiga belt. It exists across russia, northern europe, greenland and north america.
    It is not canadian by definition.

    The 1960's renditions were considerably more macho.

    In this case, a '66 model.

    Acadian refers to the New Brunswick/Nova Scotia penninsula and it's people.

    Not directly a Nova rebadge as far as i read into above, but based on the same drivetrain.

    The same years that the Acadian was offered, the Nova was also available here.
