First gen Chrysler 200 comes to mind

I think the slope of the C pillar here is key:

 

I think the Chyrsler 200 is on track there, but the tailight is clearly wrong.

 

This would be a fantastic use of AI software.

In the photo given the windshield looks distorted giving the image a uniquely upright windshield.  I don't think we have seen a windshield that upright since the 1957 Chevy.  

The diving board rear bumper...maybe Protege of this era:

In reply to ProDarwin :

Good points, maybe the predecessor, the Sebring:

I was adding this to my search also!  My tip here was the awkward front styling lifted off the Crossfire and the likelyhood to have "blingy" wheels from the factory.

My first thought was Spectra/Accent

My first thought when seeing it was a Chevy Cobalt, like this 2010 LT model. It has that weird greenhouse shape:

Maybe a Cobalt SS?

Yeah it definitely has a diving board rear bumper with really fat C-pillar.  Those two are facts, and why IMHO the sentra doesn't work.   I think the Sebring is the closest thing I've seen in the thread.

Sentra was my first thought as well.  Note that the rear plate is between the tail lights and not down on the bumper.  Car has a very short rear decklid.  And I'm guessing it's well-loaded, as the rear end seems to be squatting in that grainy pic, or the rear wheel arch is lower than the front, or something?

Good point about the license plate placement. From that I think we can rule out the Avenger, Sebring, and Cobalt.

A really weird possibility that popped into my head, Daewoo Leganza? The shape of the car was so ugly it just made me think Daewoo cheeky

I think those are aftermarket wheels, but yeah the rear arch is definitely cut lower than the front.

Oh damn, OP is in Canadia.

I had thought about the accent also, but ruled out because taillight.  Maybe they have different ones?

2005 Hyundai Accent GT with 15x8 Rota Shakotan and Goodyear 195x50 on  Coilovers | 628752 | Fitment Industries

Came here for 2005-ish Accent

Goofy rear lines make it look like the back arch is lower, too.

 

4 door? - the rear trunk is longer than the 2 door

The Daewoo is interesting for the chrome strip above the license plate.  The image seems to have a "big shine" above the plate.  

 

I too overlooked the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police.)  Was the Daewoo like this sold in CND?  
More amazing, are Legonzas actually still on the road!!!
