In the urban part of ontario the sniff test is a joke (they never got around
to rigging the dyno for small diesels)

The inspector checks under the hood for misplaced emission control hoses and
devices (there aren't any), checks the fuel filler cap (not vented), then
sits on a milk crate at the back of the car and measures the tailpipe with a
caliper, then proceeds to watch the exhaust for 5 minutes at idle.

If it puffs smoke for no more than 5 seconds in each of the 5 minutes he
watches, it passes.
No "power on" test
These laws only apply in the "Urban" areas of Ontario, and the government
has hinted it will be dumping the program just before the next election.
