It's perfectly legal in Ontario. Don't know about Manitoba.

Used cats are about $100 here, but you're on your own as far as quality 
goes; there is no certification.

Ontario's DriveClean program does not care if your cat is new or used, or 
if it's stuffed with old diapers. All they care about is if the car p*****

smog when tested.

Yep. Our premier, Dalton McSneaky, recently took away the 19-year
exemption 
from smog for cars 1988 and newer. I'm now stuck with smog checks in 
perpetuity. I never voted for that Communist anyway.
