Also, in ontario we have to pay GST and PST on used cars from dealers...what other costs would I have incur?
I'm pretty sure about the cost thing. My grandma called me a few years ago asking if I wanted to but her car for $3000 because the dealer appraised it at $6000 and would only give her 50%. Like I said though, part of what you are paying for in the markup is any maintainance, detailing, inspections, and the sales person's commission, so when you factor in all those things, you wont get much better than $15,000.

What you have to keep in mind is, they wont sell it to you for less than someone else might pay. $15k sounds pretty good.
