Please could you tell me if there are automatic cars in Canada?I have an idea the majority of thm are automatics,am I right?if someone wants to learn driving what kind of education will have?on manual or automatic?
 
Most are automatic - but both standard and automatic are easily available. If someone wants to learn how to drive they have to pick between standard and automatic.

dear schylla do you mean someone can choose ?for example I would prefer to get trained on automatic cars,would it be mandatory learning to drive also with the manual way?

It's not mandatory. You can choose either one.
 
If buying a car brand new, typically an automatic car will cost approx $1000 (give or take) more than a manual car. And in general each year there are far more automatic cars being sold vs manuals in Canada.

A common joke with some actual truth to it, is that one of the best anti-theft devices you can have for your car in Canada is a manual transmission, since young car thiefs don't know how to drive them.

There are certainly restrictions if you have any medical issues that may result in vision impairment and it being unsafe for you to drive. You can find more info here: http://transportation.alberta.ca/542.htm

I really don't know much about myopia though, so for this it's better to check directly with Alberta MOT or a doctor in Alberta familiar with their driving licensing requirements.
