Since 2006 we've been covering the auto industry for the most relevant news to Canadian auto enthusiasts. We're independent, we're Canadian and with thousands of stories (about 5,000 last time I checked) we're serious about what we do. Nobody is driven by passion like we are.

So who are we?

Peter Johnson

There are car guys and then there are car guys. I'm a car guy. If you're on this website I'm going to assume you are too (unless you're a woman at which point you're a car gal). It's pretty simple for me really, there are no boring cars. That's what drives me. And that's what drives AutoNorth.ca.

Karen McGinnis

I may be the only woman on AutoNorth.ca but I can hold my own against these guys. I've spent more than my fair share of time at auto shows, race tracks, auto plants and dealer lots. But the highlight would be lapping the Nürburgring.

Tim Felsky

I have always remembered myself as a car nut and have been very fortunate to be able to pursue my dreams so far. After completing my B.A. in Political Sciences at UWO, I began my career in the car business at the worlds largest rental car company. I now focus on e-commerce development for a large retail dealer group in South Western Ontario. My home is London, Ontario.

I am very passionate about motor sports and the automotive industry. Some of my favorite memories are touring the Jaguar XK assembly plant in Coventry, England, seeing open testing at UK's Silverstone Circuit, walking pit side at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve during the Montreal F1 race, and racing anything I can get my hands on.

I look forward to sharing with you my unique perspective on the business of cars in Canada, helpful information for consumers and drivers, and my experience as an all around motorhead.

Nick Dasko

I am a textbook example of how interests are genetic. My father drove a Volvo Amazon in European rallies before he came to Canada, and he made sure that I knew the difference between an air-cooled and water-cooled engine.

Cars are my passion. I am currently studying journalism at Conestoga College in Kitchener because writing about cars and the auto industry itself is my ultimate career goal.

Yes I am rather young. I am greatly looking forward to the day when I no longer pay the insurance rates of a male driver who is not yet 25.

I am so grateful to AutoNorth.ca and all of its readers for publishing and reading my work. I hope you will excuse my fixation on station wagons, Volvo's and weird engine configurations like Wankels, and Miller cycles.
