Canadian Certification

[Twilight Zone]

I'm a newbie on the forum.

My question is around certification for the model I plan to get - 2016 Forest River Cedar Cottage 40CRS - specifically Canadian certification.

I am planning to move the trailer to a year-round RV/mobile home park in Ontario.
According to the zoning for this park, it's ok to have 'Park Model Trailers' as long as they adhere to the CAN/CSA Z241 certification standard.

I'm wondering if anyone knows if this particular model is certified under the CSA Z241 standard, or if not what standard it does?

Appreciate any responses. Looking forward to learning a lot on this forum.

Suggest contacting the manufacturer or local Canadian retailer -- such as who you're buying this from. This is more like a "mobile home" than a camper or RV.

First, welcome to the forum from just east of Toronto!

Obviously, you're buying a used trailer. My understanding is that if the trailer was originally imported into Canada from the manufacturer by a Canadian dealer, it will have the necessary certifications to be used in Canada. There should be a CSA sticker on the sidewall near the entrance door. Canadian certification by the manufacturer is a free "option" offered by Forest River brands.

If you buy an RV in the US and import it into Canada yourself, you have to take it to Canadian Tire to get proper certification before registering it in Ontario. I got this info several years ago though so it may be out of date now. Best to do some Google searching and verify with MTO/Service Ontario if you're buying the RV in the US and bringing it up here.
