re: Cars imported into Canada from the US.

The speedometers do not have to be changed as long as
the km/h markings are there (which, since the 1970s, I have 
always seen).  It doesn't matter that the km/h markings 
are in smaller print than the mph markings, as long as they
are on the speedometer.

The odometer does not have to be changed to reflect the 
distance driven in km.  But if it is calibrated in miles, 
a label must be applied stating that the distance shown is 
in miles and not in kilometres.
