Kris,
It is a requirement, and customs can hold the shipments if they find it. 
UL does a poor job of checking the markings for both languages. 
Many manufacturers of CUL (Canadian UL) listed products are not aware that
dual language markings are a requirement for Canada. It is a requirement,
and customs can hold the shipments if they find it.
