Wouldn't consider that a crossing as most of the Toronto Streetcar System is street-running and those lights are for an intersection.

I should've mentioned the spur

I still wouldn't say that is appropriate for this thread as those traffic signals aren't there for the crossing. Whether or not a crossing like that is considered passive or not could be up for debate though. There is a similar situation at this crossing on a heritage line in Tecumseh, Michigan.

I'm not 100% sure on this but I don't think that traffic signals at intersections with crossings are required by federal law to change to a certain phase when there is a train, although the one you posted was of coarse from Canada.

I'm pretty sure they are, or at least it's recommended that they are.

Those were not protected by traffic signals! The signals were for the intersection.

Looks like those are just beacons and not full traffic signals.
