Default About the Yamaha RXV 863 or the HTR 6108

I live in Canada and noticed a difference about these receivers between Yamahas Canadian and American specs on these 2 models, the American specs advertise the HD radio while there is no mention of the HD radio on Yamaha.ca. Does anyone know if this feature has been omitted from Canadian purchasers and why. Thanks.

Does Canada have HD radio?

HD Radio
HD Radio, the only digital broadcast system in America approved by the FCC, offers you crystal-clear, CD-quality sound via existing AM/FM radio bands. In addition, it gives you program-associated data and the ability to tune to multiple programs at the same dial position. Over 2,500 radio stations are in the fast lane upgrading to HD Radio broadcasting to reach 95% of America's population, and more than 230 stations are onair now.
