A shop owner in Laval just outside Montreal once told me it's the same there. He said he'd lost a 911 parked in front of his shop during working hours while he and his team were inside working on cars.

I asked what the local and provincial police were doing about it. His take was they didn't really care. This was a few years ago and at a time when Montreal's Trudeau airport had the worst rate of airport parking lot car theft in the Western world.

The shop owner said the word was that the expensive cars were stolen to order, placed in containers shortly after being taken, and soon on their way to the Middle East.
