which is probably a reasonably accurate copy of "Treaty Series 1952 No. 
7 Operation of Certain Radio Equipment or Stations Convention between 
CANADA and the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA":

"It is agreed that persons holding appropriate amateur licenses issued 
by either country may operate their amateur stations in the territory of 
the other country under the following conditions:

(a) Each visiting amateur may be required to register and receive a 
permit before operating any amateur station licensed by his government.

(b) The visiting amateur will identify his station by:

(1) Radiotelegraph operation — The amateur call sign issued to him by 
the licensing country followed by a slant (/) sign and the amateur call 
sign prefix and call area number of the country he is visiting.

(2) Radio telephone operation — The amateur call sign in English issued 
to him by the licensing country followed by the words "fixed", 
"portable" or "mobile", as appropriate, and the amateur call sign prefix 
and call area number of the country he is visiting.

(c) Each amateur station shall indicate at least once during each 
contact with another station its geographical location as nearly as 
possible by city and state or city and province.

(d) In other respects the amateur station shall be operated in 
accordance with the laws and regulations of the country in which the 
station is temporarily located."

Is very clear how one is to operate based on that.
