I would expect that a Canadian car would have KPH showing as the primary measurement on the speedo gauge instead of MPH. Same for odometer.
Anyone confirm this?

Hi Verdena from what I have read on ebay honda used a bunch of different clusters. Any thoughts on this? The spedo is oddly in MPH. Thanks for taking the time to respond to this

Yeah there's probably 20 or 30 different part numbers possible depending on the car, trim, equipment, year, body, etc.
I'd say to use a Canadian Honda parts catalog if you want the exactly correct replacement, enter the VIN of the car in question, and look up the correct cluster, see what part number it gives you.
Then compare with a US catalog lookup and see if part numbers match.

Alternatively, people do swap clusters for other reasons, different look or different color....but sometimes you may have warning lights left on, or if you swap early/late the wiring is different. There are threads here about it, search.
