I can’t speak for Canada, but as a LEO is the states, law allows certain percentages of tint. This varies from state to state and probably Providence to Providence.

No states allow front tint. We do 70% because it's practically clear but still blocks UV and gives some heat rejection.

I tint my full windshield every car. Blocks the heat, kills the glare at night. I also don’t break the law so I don t get harassed

Here are the latest Ohio tint laws for Sedans, SUVs, and Vans:
There's a woman in our condo complex who drives an SUV, and when she goes by I can't tell who's in the driver's chair. It's got to be a 5% tint. She told me there are times she has to lower the window to properly see out the side of the vehicle. I asked her where she got the tint; the answer: it came on the (used) SUV when she bought it at the dealer.

If you watch any one of the reality police TV shows, you would know that many of their traffic stops start out as window tint violations. Why give them probable cause to pull you over?????
