I need to set length, width and height of my products for shipping calculation with the canada post mod.

The Canada Post contribution already includes code and database updates to handle that for you. If you're not seeing the options for dimensions when entering your product details, then you've not installed it properly.

Sure ... all the files from the /admin/ folder in the contribution zip.
