I have flown over Detroit City (DET) on my way to the Chesapeake and asked for a transponder code to overfly Canada. DET said that they were to busy and handed me off to the Windsor controller. The Windsor controller said that they didn't assign transponder codes.
Oh Well... so much for trying to follow the rules.

Further FYI, the airspace over Canada is definitely Canadian and to my knowledge requires a flight plan and squak code for international over-flights (that’s how I always fly over it). However, on several occasions when I’ve flown direct from Detroit to Buffalo (over Canada) at night, I wasn’t handed over to a Canadian controller – just stayed with Cleveland Center who covers those Canadian sectors.
