Who sells snowblowers (snow-throwers) in Michigan?

There is nothing really available in Canada for less than $1000. At that price, the best unit (based on spec) seems to be the Canadian Tire unit (8.5 hp, 26" width).

In the USA, availability starts in the $750 - $800 range (6 to 8.5 hp,

24 to 26" width) and some decent units can be had for $900 (9 to 9.5 hp, 28" width).

Basically, for what you can get in the USA for $900 would cost you $1200 in Canada.

What you can get in the USA for $700 - $900 would cost you $1000 in Canada.

I bought a 8hp, 24" blower at Sears in either Dec 2005 or Jan 2006. It was on sale - for $800. Who knows what it cost in the US at the time, but it was probably something like $650.
