Because it has already been in service, that requirement does not take effect. But if it was new (not yet into service), then it would be subject to Transport Canada regulations regarding what is required in Canada. Another easier way of looking at it would be the DRL's. In Canada, it's a requirement on all vehicles (and has been since the 90's). In the USA, for example, not all states require them.

Hope this helps.
Thanks for the clarification. I had not found that information when looking for my "Z". Could explain why I didn't have any problems importing it since it was already in service.

For all others looking at importing a vehicle, here's a couple web sites I used:
