way to go Tony !
Envoy was a rebadged Vauxhall only sold in Canada - quite rare now. The Epic was a rebaged Viva HB Estate with left hand drive and some trim differences. This one sported a 3.8L GM V6 and automatic gearbox.

JDM Honda Domani/Canadian market Acura 1.6EL? Circa 1997-2000? Without the badging it's difficult for me to tell which one this actually is since it doesn't seem to have the more upmarket wheels and chrome trim the Acura typically did, but it does have the orange front repeaters which are typically a western thing and which therefore would have been more common on the Canadian version.

The Canadian Acura 1.6EL was built and sold exclusively for that market, replacing the Integra sedan. It was/is Acura's version of the Civic. The first generation 96-00 was the only one to have unique front end sheet metal and lights, and was a **** site better looking than the Civic. The following generation 1.7EL ('01-'05) had only minor trim variations to differentiate it from its Honda branded twin. In 2006 it was renamed CSX and continues on as such. The CSX was designed in Canada and use the 155hp 2.0L VTEC engine, and Honda based the design for the JDM Civic off of the CSX.

Alright, I'll take that as a request for a hint. 
Think of the forum were on, and then think....manufacturer. (alright dangit...it's a Ford)
I'll also tell you that the plant where this car was produced actually belonged to a different manufacturer just prior to this models introduction, and for that reason this car is based heavily upon one of the former owners designs.
