Special Trailer Brakes Required in Canada?
I had a friend tell me they had heard that there were some sort of special trailer brakes required in Canada. Any info on this, truth or not?

Ontario and quebec are pretty straight forward
any trailer over 2000 lbs must have brakes on ALL wheels and there must a functioning breakaway system
a car on a dolly IS considered a trailer and has the same requirements
The threshold for brakes in Ontario is 3,000 pounds (1,360kg), not 2k.
Car dollies are not trailers and they do not require brakes in Ontario.
