Canada Day 2025: A Time to Reflect, Celebrate, and Support Canadian Business

Each year on July 1st, Canadians from coast to coast come together to mark Canada Day, the anniversary of Confederation in 1867 when Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia united to form the Dominion of Canada. While deeply rooted in our nation’s history, this day also invites us to reflect on what it means to be Canadian in today’s world.

Canada Day is more than a public holiday. It is a celebration of the values we uphold as a nation: inclusivity, resilience, innovation, and pride in our communities. Whether attending a parade, watching fireworks, or gathering with family and friends, Canadians use this occasion to honour their shared identity and look ahead with optimism.

Celebrating Canadian Values with Canuck Motors

At Canuck Motors, this day serves as a meaningful reminder of our purpose. We are proud to serve Canadians by manufacturing high-quality auto parts and contributing to the strength of our national economy.

As we celebrate Canada Day, we’re reminded of what it truly means to build something here—by Canadians, for Canadians.

Our Story: Built for Canadians, by Canadians

We, Aamir Jalgaonkar and Mohammed Aadil Shaikh, are the founders of Canuck Motors. Today, we want to share why we started this journey. Our story isn’t just about auto parts. It’s about filling a real gap in the Canadian market.

For years, we watched the Canadian automotive industry rely heavily on imported parts from international brands. These parts weren’t always designed for our climate, our roads, or our working conditions. More importantly, we noticed something missing: Canadian-owned car brand people could rely on. One that understands local needs, supports local businesses, and takes pride in delivering dependable quality right here at home.

That’s why Canuck Motors was created.

Canadian Reliability, Trusted Quality

We set out to build a brand that puts Canadian reliability first, with OEM-grade parts tested in extreme conditions, from -50°C winters to +50°C summer heat. But beyond performance, we knew what really mattered was trust.

• Trust that your part will fit properly.
• Trust that it’s built for Canadian driving conditions.
• Trust that your dollars stay within Canadian businesses, jobs, and supply chains.

Statistics Canada reports that over 98% of employer businesses in Canada are small and medium-sized enterprises, many owned by Canadians just like us. A recent BDC study also found that 84% of Canadians prefer buying from Canadian companies, especially when quality matches or exceeds alternatives.

This growing support is more than a trend. It is a movement. At Canuck Motors, we are proud to be part of that movement. Every car water pump, every bearing, every seal we ship reflects our commitment to Canadian standards, customer service, and lasting quality.
