As dealers don't do FDL coding and only use VO Coding for adding retrofit features, it's logical that adding this feature via VO coding and FSC would be the best BMW delivery method for retrofit.
This site has forums with posts that talk about the CA bulletin for a 1CR retrofit. The bulletin itself references a subsequent bulletin which will detail the exact steps the dealer should follow to apply the retrofit. I haven't seen that bulletin, but obtaining it would be my priority if I wanted the feature active.

So is there a Canadian BMW tech on this forum that is willing to help? |
I've just confirmed with my very competent Canadian sources that the FSC for the 1CR retrofit is VIN-tied.
In this case and at present, I suspect only available help will come from your dealer. Considering that many that received cars manufactured before April 2019 paid for 1CR and didn't get it, a fairly strong demand for your dealers to fullfil their and BMW's contracted obligations is appropriate.
