Canadian Automobile Dealers Association Chief Economist Spring Economic
Update

OTTAWA, May 5 /CNW Telbec/ -

    
    WHO:      Canadian Automobile Dealers Association (CADA) Chief Economist
              Michael Hatch

    WHAT:     CADA's Chief Economist will hold a media teleconference to
              provide his spring economic update on the state of the retail
              automotive industry in Canada.

    WHEN:     Thursday, May 6th, at 11:00 AM EDT

    CALL IN:  1-888-231-8191, Conference ID No. 73235490

    WHY:      Canada's 3,400 new car dealers are emerging from the recession
              in very good shape. Though 2009 was challenging, consumers are
              starting to return to showroom floors and sales have picked up
              strongly so far this year. Canada's relative economic strength
              - and continued record-low vehicle prices - have put our dealer
              network at the forefront of the return to economic growth in
              2010.
