Canadian aircraft are required, by law, to carry fire extinguishers. I
checked the US FARs but couldn't see that an extinguisher is required.
However, a $30 extinguisher could save your life, not to mention the
airplane.

The only fire extinguisher worth having on your plane is halon. The US does
not require you to carry a fire extinguisher.
