SOUTHFIELD, Mich., and TORONTO -- RouteOne LLC is expanding into Canada next year. Scotiabank will be the first Canadian prime finance source added to its credit application management system.

Scotiabank is Canada´s largest non-captive auto lender and the first non-captive finance source available on the system.

RouteOne began its national rollout to U.S. dealers in the summer of 2004. After a pilot phase, RouteOne will be available in Canada in early 2005. A Canadian Dealer Advisory Board has been established to provide input and feedback on the system.

RouteOne Canada is headquartered in Markham, Ontario. The RouteOne Canada Web site, launched in early August, is within RouteOne.com. The Canadian site will provide corporate news, rollout plans, functionality updates and other information.
