I'll also add that Elon Musk (he's a CEO too) thinks that fully autonomous driving can be achieved by using cameras - cameras that can see through bad weather conditions like fog and snow.

It's Elon Musk we're talking here, so I'll take his ideas with a grain of salt.
Most tests on autonomous vehicles are done on clear, dry weather. I've yet to see one where self-driving cars can function sufficiently on rain and snow, and since the majority of Canada doesn't get the luxury of the hot climate that SoCal gets, it's gonna be very difficult to come by.
Also, where autonomous vehicles tested during the dark?
