From reading several of the comments posted, it looks like this will be the replacement for the Acura EL in Canada - the 2006 Acura CSX. Since most of these options are not available on the North American Civic (styling as well as features) it looks like this package will be sold as the EL's replacement in Canada, the Acura CSX.
I love living in Canada

I can't wait to test drive this and see how much of an improvement it is to the EL that I drive
Looks like it will get a 155 hp K20 as well (variation of the base RSX engine I presume). This is going to kick ass!

The one in the link is the JDM Civic. What I meant was what we will get here in Canada, the Acura CSX, will have all of the same cool little features, and styling (maybe different fascia to tie in with Acura image). However, the thing that will be different is that it will come with a 155 hp K20.

Welcome to last months news...

Of course Canada will get a new EL. They are killing the RSX, so what else are they going to have to sell below the TSX? EL is the old body style Civic Sedan, obviously a car they do not produce anymore...

Canadians love little cars, so Acura MUST have something small to sell to them...

I hope they decide to sell this car in the US. If not immediatly, then after the demise of the RSX...

^ This makes me want to touch myself ^
