Hi Peter,

You're good to go with the ID requirement you outlined.
I've pasted the relevant FCC reg. and the CA/US treaty below.

§ 97.107Reciprocal operating authority.A non-citizen of the United States
(“alien”) holding an amateur service authorization granted by the alien's
government is authorized to be the control operator of an amateur station
located at places where the amateur service is regulated by the FCC,
provided there is in effect a multilateral or bilateral reciprocal
operating arrangement, to which the United States and the alien's
government are parties, for amateur service operation on a reciprocal
basis. The FCC will issue public announcements listing the countries with
which the United States has such an arrangement. No citizen of the United
States or person holding an FCC amateur operator/primary station license
grant is eligible for the reciprocal operating authority granted by this
section. The privileges granted to a control operator under this
authorization are:(a) For an amateur service license *granted by the
Government of Canada*:(1) The terms of the Convention Between the United
States and Canada (TIAS No. 2508) Relating to the Operation by Citizens of
Either Country of Certain Radio Equipment or Stations in the Other Country;(2)
The operating terms and conditions of the amateur service license issued by
the Government of Canada; and(3) The applicable rules of this part, but not
to exceed the control operator privileges of an FCC-granted Amateur Extra
Class operator license.
(b) For an amateur service license *granted by any country, other than
Canada*, with which the United States has a multilateral or bilateral
agreement:(1) The terms of the agreement between the alien's government and
the United States;(2) The operating terms and conditions of the amateur
service license granted by the alien's government;(3) The applicable rules
of this part, but not to exceed the control operator privileges of an
FCC-granted Amateur Extra Class operator license; and
(c) At any time the FCC may, in its discretion, modify, suspend or cancel
the reciprocal operating authority granted to any person by this section.[63
