This link will take you to the Canada Border Services Agency site with info on tires.

Scroll down to appendix "A"


The following is copied from above link:
USED ON-ROAD
All types except truck tires
ORIGIN - USA
Tires must bear the U.S. DOT symbol on the sidewall of the tire (see Appendix B).

ORIGIN - Other countries
Not admissible. Deny entry.

Hope this helps.
