No.
The United States, through the TSA and FAA, has specific
requirements on what can and cannot be brought on board an aircraft,
either commercial or private. What Canada does, does not do, and
what you have gotten away with James, should not enter into this
discussion, period. What you got away with on one flight could very
well put another person in prison for a long time. Believe me, the
TSA is NOT very forgiving.

in your checked baggage! In the cabin, flight crew can better monitor
conditions, and have access to the batteries or device if a fire does occur. "
