From Alex Emond: "In a parking lot in Strathmore, Alberta ... I assumed that I was looking at a Chevy Nova. The Acadian, however, was made in Canada and given a Canadian brand. There is a decades long history of Big Three cross-border swapping of parts, body styles, chassis, engines - whatever. It's a good looking car."
AL: Canso is a town and peninsula in Nova Scotia. Acadians are French-speaking citizens of eastern Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. There is also a significant Acadian population in Aroostook Country, Maine along the St John river. After the fall of New France in 1759, Acadians expelled from Nova Scotia resettled in the French territory of Louisiana and became Cajuns.
