Maybe i should compalin to BMW Canada, but what can they do?
BMWCA can do practically nothing. Better to form a relationship with your dealer, IMO. It occasionally happens that they don't have enough loaners; my dealer has 60 or so but it still happens, and the last time I was in I got a Toyota minivan. They offered to switch it with me as soon as they got a loaner in, later that day. I declined, as it only took a day for the repair (vacuum line). I would try the same, tell them that you would like a BMW loaner and you will swap them over as soon as one is available. In the current cold snap that you have in Calgary, they likely have broken down vehicles lined up off the lot. No, it isn't a good situation, but it is possible to make the most of it.

Good luck.
