I believe all Canadian models come with the block heater. The cord is unobtrusive so why would you want to go through the trouble to remove it? On my '09

The cord is unobtrusive so why would you want to go through the trouble to remove it? On my '09 Z I didn't even know it was there until someone said it came with a block heater. It may be attached to a freeze plug which is pressed into the block. Then it would be a pita to get it out. If using synthetic oil, a block heater becomes less useful as the oil won't be as thick at colder temperatures as dino oil would be. But getting down to -40 it would have its benefits especially at reducing cold start wear with little lubrication.
