How can such a question be answered? Maybe the assumption behind it is
'Canada is wealthier than Mexico so why would a poorer country have color TV
before a wealthier one'? No harm intended to our Mexican friends of course!

You might as well ask why Mexico had the Olympic Games before Canada (1968/1976).

You seem to have found a date of 1963 for the first color broadcasts in Mexico,
while the few sources available seem to give 1966 or 1967 for Canada. A more
interesting question would be, for instance, at what point in time were there
more color receivers than monochrome receivers in service in each country.

Good luck with your investigation.
