I am an amateur radio operator visiting Canada from another
country. While in Canada can I use my call sign from my home
country?
As per the document RIC-9: Call sign policy and special event
prefixes
<https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/smt-gst.nsf/eng/sf02102.html>, you
may use the call sign assigned by your country’s administration in
Canada, but you must bring your amateur radio operator’s
certificate/licence and have obtained a CEPT certificate from your
home administration. If your country is not part of the CEPT
agreement you must obtain a letter of authority from the Amateur
Radio Service Centre (ARSC)
<https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/025.nsf/eng/h_00010.html>. Visiting
amateurs must include the prefix of the geographical location, and
the area of operation with the identification of their station.
Therefore, an amateur from the United Kingdom with the call sign
G**** who will be operating in Winnipeg, Manitoba, would append the
prefix “Portable VE4” or “/VE4” to their home call sign, and
transmit “Winnipeg” at least once during each communication.

Hello Claude and all,
in 9.2.II of that referred document, it says:
"...by adding an oblique character (“/”)"
They say 'adding' and for CW this would mean '/p' or something.
in 9.2.c it says "...by adding the Canadian amateur call sign
prefix...'
This would mean, if we follow the previous logic of 'adding':
<homecall>/<prefix> and prefix is according to the mentioned
'Schedule IV' table.
A ham of a CEPT country has to set it in front, "...an amateur
station licensed by the Government of the United States.."
(see 9.2 of that document) has to append the canadian prefix. (?)

Hi John & All,
Canada requires a postpend. Check the Canadian regs.
According to the recent information (CQ-DL 4-2018) about the operation
according to the CEPT agreement, Canada requires a prefix, as usual,
such as VE4/ VO2/ VY2/ etc.
Perhaps, there is more information here:
