Default 1970 Malibu SS Canadian Built

Hi guys!
I hope this is the appropriate section to post my question but I am wondering if anyone has much information on 1970 Malibu SS Canadian built cars, but more specifically if any LS6 cars were manufactured?
I came across an interesting Malibu SS 454 over in Ontario fitted with the LS5 along with with the Z15 SS package and ZL2 ducted hood.
My question is more for curiosity sake as I enjoy researching Canadian cars and obtaining GM docs when they arise.

GM's Oshawa Ont. assembly plant never assembled the 1970 L-78,LS-6 solid lifter Chevelle.
The Hydraulic lifter L-34,LS-5 Chevelle,yes.
Canada did import already assembled L-78,LS-6 chevelles from the USA to be sold in Canada too.
BTW,if it crossed the canadian border,or was assembled in Canada,VVS has a record of it.https://www.vintagevehicleservices.com/option-info

Park Lane is still around. (Sarnia is my hometown)
Originally on Indian Rd. but has since moved to London Rd.

I have a dealer emblem too.

I believe they sold at least one COPO Camaro. (I'll have to check the list)

Mr70, is that over & above the standard GM docs from George Zapora & John Agueci you can obtain? (As seen in my picture above). I didn’t know you could ask for such info from VVS.

Park Lane did sell atleast one 1969 COPO Camaro which was Cortez Silver.
