This reminds me of the 2 door 'Monarch' that was owned by a mechanic at the neighborhood service station when I was a kid. The guy used to light up the tires most every time he left work. Was the Monarch a Canadian only brand of FoMoCo product?

Yes; not counting the 1975 through 1980 Granada-based compacts.
