Of course they are allowed... it's a slider. Close relative of the RES (Red Eared Slider).

You may import turtles, but you may not sell or give them or their offsprings away. That is why most big pet stores will not carry turtles. Just the small independents and private sales.

It's not a by law, but an import requirement from CFIA (CDN food and inspeciton agency).
