i looked up Canada's laws on that stuff and no where did i find anywhere that it said anything against the rear lights being tinted...it said that at night you had to be able to see the light from 150 meters away...He may have been misinterpreting the law that says that your headlights can't be that dark. That is the link that I looked at you can look and see if you find anything different then what I did.
