None approved for Canadian installation.

American code does not seem to reference 10 amp breakers as
acceptable. Check NEC code reference 210.3 with the following...

"Branch circuit ratings for other than individual circuits must be
15A, 20A, 30A, 40A, or 50A."

This MAY allow for a 10 amp breaker to protect a particular hard
wired/exclusive circuit such as a dish-washer or garburetor -
Generally speaking "device protection" breakers, as differentiated
from "circuit protection" breakers are installed in or at the
protected device rather than in the panel.

Seimens ans Square D APPEAR to be the only source for 10 amp breakers
and they are not (as far as I can determine) available in Canada. Not
available from my electrical wholesalers.

10 amp breakers are specifically for alarm circuits, not general
lighting circuits.
18ga is good for 10a in a 2 wire cable or 7a if there are 3 current
carrying conductors in a cable..
