Car Nation Canada was developed over 30 years by Rick Paletta who believed that success in the automotive industry came through a diversification of industry knowledge. It was his vision that saw the need for many dealerships to join under a single banner to ensure profitability as consumer demands changed. Car Nation Canada Realized that consumer tastes and interests change more rapidly than a dealer can realistically change his/her inventories. Satisfying the consumer vehicle needs would be much easier with a diversified portfolio of dealerships.

Car Nation Canada operates 16 dealerships under one umbrella with a standardized process and a branding that ensures a customer has a superior experience at any one of the dealerships.
