Unless it's caused by neglecting the vehicle, yes it should be covered.

Keep in mind that since you are in Canada, deviation from the severe maitenance schedule (oil changes every 3 month, etc) is considered neglect.

That seems arbitrary, does it have to be 3 months, or does within 8,000 KM count?

I've had the car almost 2 years now and it's only seen 2 oil changes due to the low KM I put on it.

That is interesting. Here in Ontario all the dealers I have dealt with make the severe maintenance schedule a requirement, not a recommendation. That's oil changes every 3 months/5000km, whichever comes first.

Then again, Ontario has to have the worst dealer network in the country

Anyone know if you could get the ac pulley or bearing instead of replacing the whole compressor I've searched but can't find anything except the whole thing
