"This year, for certain models, there were no winter tires available, says Mr. Iny. Such was the case for the Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz. Consequently, readers will be warned of a possible shortage of 18-inch winter tires early in the season."

And then, he adds: "This law was adopted pretty hastily, and various problems will ensue at the start of next winter. You can bet on it." As a result, if a consumer can't find appropriate winter tires in time, the law requires his or her vehicle to be left in the driveway or stored in the garage.

Quebec's "Guide annuel Autos 2008" is now in its 20th year.
