I was vaguely aware of this regulation (it's been discussed here in the
past) but actually I'm from north of the border. Does anyone know if
there is are similar regulations in Canada?

Well, I just came from Casino Niagara (Ontario side), and the cashiers'
windows all have a sign saying that the law requires them to check ID
for cash transactions of $1000 (not $10000) or more. I don't know if
this is a general rule, or if it's just a rule for casinos.
