GPS is a worldwide thing, so it should work in canada. However, some systems require you to purchase different maps in different regions. Check to see if this is the case.

Not as a practical matter. Because of the way that the nav system is integrated into the vehicle it would be extremely expensive to install the factory system in one that was not equipped with it originally. The steering wheel switchgear and its associated wiring, the dashboard assembly, stereo head unit and wiring harnesses would all have to be replaced as well as installing the DVD control unit. There are after-market head units that can be fitted that include navigation systems. Or you could simply buy a portable unit for less than $200 and use it in ANY vehicle and take it with you when you travel. You can get an ultra high end portable unit with North American and European maps pre-installed for less than $1,000.

The navigation system will only work in ceartain parts of Canada. As you zoom out you will see the parts covered.

The dvd included covers most of north america, in canada most metro areas, but not much rural areas. All your highways are mapped as well

If you stay within 20 - 25 miles of the US border, (which is where 95% of all Canadians live) you will be fine.
So why do 95% of all Canadians live within 25 miles of the US? BECAUSE IT'S FREAKIN COLD IN CANADA!
