Final Report:
1. Introduction
To thank for all you guys who have kindly provided the advice or help, I decided to write a brief report, hoping this will benefit others who may have or will have the same kind of problem that I have.
2. Possible Solutions:
To solve this problem, I called the closest garage(2342660), which is only 100 meters away. Originally they said they will fix it for 15$/tire, but after I told them I have two flat tires and I can not move my car, they asked me $50 more on top of 15$/tire, saying the weather is so cold and the job will be too hard, I said with 50$ I could even bring a tow truck, they said with 2 flat tires, the towing fee would be more than $70, so they only charge me $50 and save me $20. This is OUTRAGEOUS!!! By then I have decided not to go there no matter what!
I have summaried the solutions to my problem and the cost as follows:
a. rent an air compressor from Home Depot, 21$ for 4 hours and $30 for 24 urs.
b. by an air compressor from Home Depot, 70$ for a portable one and $150+ for a big one.
c. tow my car away for $50+
d. join CAA(78$ annaual membership fee) and wait for 48 hours to tow my car for free
e. join CAA(78$ annaual membership fee) and tow my car right away for $35.
f. take the two flat tires down myself and send it for fixing
3. Conclusion:
Finally I chose d, and I got a parking ticket for $50 which I think would be cancled or deduced if I go to the court and show my CAA receipt.
The fact prooved that my decision was right, because the two tires were slashed seriously and not repairable.
There are many choices available for the garage that is close to me.
a. Canadian tire
b. Midas
c. Good Year
d. Unico
e. Costco
finally I chose a. I was not able to get a quote from e because I can't get their phone number.
The fact prooved that I was right. I went to Canadian tire at Richmond Road. They are not as busy as the other Canadian tire stores and I got a quick replacement of my tires for $20 labour and $120 parts, not a bad deal.
I only regret that I did not buy a Mechilon tire after I know I can spend 6$/tire for a life time warranty. This means if for any reason they can't fix your tire, you will get a new one of the same brand for free. One trival thing that is worth to be mentioned is that they were trying to ask me pay for recycling of the old tires (3$/tire), you don't need to pay for this. Just ask them to take that away from your bill.
4. Who is the culprit?
I would write this section in Chinese because of the obvious reason.

I would write this section in Chinese because of the obvious reason.
在除夕那天晚上一个中东人摸样的白人倒车时险些碰到了我的车,我下了车告诉他倒车的时候要往后面看,他却摆出一幅职高气昂的样子,一边作出下流的动作(不停的扭着腰往前拱),一边叫嚣:"go back to Hongkong! go back to China!". 当时的我非常气愤,指着他的鼻子说:"you can be killed to drive like this, you should be responsible for your own life!". 100%是这位不速之客对我的车下了毒手,(我在那两个报废的轮胎上找到了两个一抹一样的刀口),这是一种懦夫的行为!
庆幸的是我记住了那个家伙的车号,如果再有一次这样的事情发生,我就会报警,如果加拿大的警察不能解决这件事的话,我一定会帮助他们解决的!
