It really doesn’t make much difference whether we are talking pre or post bankruptcy. In a bankruptcy if you have a vehicle that is worth greater than the amount allowable in the provinces (which is $5,650 in Ontario), the difference between the value of the vehicle and the exemption limit must be realized by the creditors. So you would either have to sell the vehicle or you would have to provide the trustee with cash representing the non-exempt equity.
