Just a heads-up to Canadians hoping to remote start their Fords using Google Assistant / Google Home. It's a USA-only feature at this time. It's frustrating as it simply needs to be enabled on their end and then we could enjoy it in Canada. They are probably obligated to add French support before doing so, or something like that.

I suggest (and request) that anyone who cares send a message to https://twitter.com/FordServiceCA :)

Their response to me:

Hi Ryan, I appreciate you taking the time to send us a message. My name is Aaron; I am a Social Media Specialist for Ford. We can certainly see why you reached out to us here in regard to the FordPass, Google Assistant function. As of right now, we don't have an ETA for the availability of this function within Canada. What I would like to do for you today is create a feedback case to document your thoughts. To do so, would you mind providing the following information? Thank you.
(I then replied with requested info and they gave me a case #).

FYI you can see if the feature is available here: https://assistant.google.com/services/a/uid/000000ac1d2afd15
