But in US class B/C (and Canada class C), they do take on that
responsibility.


US Class C? I don't think so. Just trying some logic here with the
books closed, how could they separate VFR traffic that isn't identified
on radar from anyone? Radar ID is not required to enter Class C. I can
just see plugging along with a hood on in VFR while some guy in 2 way
radio contact is transiting the Class C.
