Or just not buy so many ugly ass SUVs/crossovers/minivans/god the list goes on.

so, small cars...

Just regular hatchbacks. I wouldn't consider a Golf a small car

Unfortunately, in North America, a Golf is a small car. There are not many compact cars, and supposedly only 3 subcompacts on the market in Canada. I've had so many people comment on my "cute" and "tiny" 2020 Golf, yet it's barely any smaller than my old 2005 Civic Sedan (and has a lot more usable space). It shouldn't be a small car, but it is relative to the rest of the market in North America where there's less than a dozen cars smaller than it.
