Only if you plug it in to a 240v outlet which is normally only found
behind the kitchen stove, clothes dryer, and occasionally in the garage
but you'd have to make a special adapter to plug it in to the large 30A
receptacle. You could also use an autotransformer but you'd need a real
large one. Unless this is a very nice toaster or has sentimental value I
would recommend you sell it and buy a new one in Canada.
