Correct, they used to do Roadster modification from US specs to Canada. However, since Model S they now did explicitly said they no longer do specs conversion. I doubt they will make exception.
Although hardware wise, Model 3 specs is compliant with both US and Canada. I beleive all those Canada regulations are just a matter of new firmware, but Tesla still won't do it for you.
I sincerely question this 'specs' inspection. When my Audi S4 was imported in 2008, the RIV official sat in it and asked if it had DRLs and a kmh speedo. That was basically all he inspected other than the paperwork. All of this talk about red seat belt buttons etc...is this for real? has anyone actually had this become an issue at a RIV inspection?
If you google this topic all you find is tesla people worrying about it (but never actually having it be an issue on an importation). Funny that.
