A relative is with Peel PD and had to be cautious snooping the records for some rather minor info.
Here you go….
No address but owner name.
I'm surprised but you might get a reply: Owned by Charlies Leasing but for $18 it would be worth a shot.

Just to update, I received an email today from my insurance company saying after viewing the footage they deemed me 0% at fault for the incident. plus my insurance will still no faults
