Default US market alternator fit canada civic?

i got a 2002 civic ex..4 door.automatic.vtec.
the alternator is only charging 13.50V..my manual alternator info test says it has to be no less than 13.90V.if less that 13.90v i need to fix or replace alternator.
i got me a friend that has one but it a US Honda car and my Honda is Canada.i saw in eBay that us market alternator only fit US manufactured civic.,is this right? or are alternator compatible?

Both are the exact same Denso Alternator, same Part Number, Canada and the US Civics has only a few things different, but the alternator isnt one of them.

The sellers must be confused with older Civics. On the 96-00 SOHC CIvics, the alternator is different for US vs. Canada because one has a round plug and the other has a square plug.
