the square ones look pretty ulgy with this dark yellow/orange and that
obligatory km/h bar beneath! (probably for stupid Americans)

as I entered Canada by car from the US there was a big sign informing about
metric speeds

somewhere in niagara falls or after it

What do you mean: "dark yellow/orange"? .Canadian speed limit signs are black and white,just like American ones. The Province of Quebec has warning signs before dangerous curves. They have a light brown background and the last figure is a 5.
