I’m so curious as to why you think us/canadian toilets don’t flush if you pour water into the bowl..
It's a reference to the siphonic system versus washdown system.
Ok, but siphonic systems still flush just fine if you pour water into them..? I’ve been doing it my whole life. Like even if you just pour water from a pitcher at a normal rate it’ll eventually hit a pressure point and flush itself (assuming there’s no clog). If you do it from more than a foot above the bowl it flushes basically instantly.
An instant flush is what OP wants. If they can do that with the siphonic system, that's great.
