Thanks for this information, but what is the best option to make sure we are covered wherever we go?

If you have auxiliary brakes already, I would think you are covered everywhere.  Each province has different minimum requirements for brakes, but after a certain weight, they all do require it.  So if you got them, I'd say you are covered.  With maybe the exception to BC, they seem to have a lot of fine print.

Steve,  Is this an upgrade to Canada's prior auxiliary brake requirements for towed vehicles?

Marsha,

I am not aware of any changes since this item was posted in 2005.  The BC regulations are the most stringent in Canada, so if you comply there, you comply everywhere to my knowledge.
