Will the ZED/28 be available in Canada?

Will the Z/28 be available in Canada. I had wanted to buy a '13 Boss LS to go with my standard 12 but they weren't available up here because of some lighting issue. Will the changes made to the Z/28 affect availability here?

The Canadian cars are using the lower fogs for DRLs in 2013. The LS won't mount fogs because of the brake ducts. This also means that regular Boss owners can't install them either if they want to have working DRLs.

Oh, and ZED/28 sounds so much better than ZEE/28 which just sounds like a speech impediment. ;-)

Both the Canadians and British utilize the pronunciation of 'Z' as Zed.

If I understand it correctly, the Z/28 does not come with fog lights.

Correct. USA is the only country which pronounces the letter Z as "zee". Everywhere else it's pronounced as "zed".
