Does a FAR 61.58 PPC ride meet part 121 or 135 Requirements?

Good morning,

I hold an FAA/TCCA CPL with Multi-engine Instrument Rating. I recently did a PIC Initial Training for an A320 type rating in Florida.

My checkride report says it's a Pilot Proficiency Check and the checkride was conducted by an FAA examiner, there's also a ticked box that reads FAR 61.58.

Now in Canada, you have to renew your IR every two years but I was told by a Canadian inspector the A320 FAA checkride that I did would allow me to renew my IR as long as it meets part 121 or 135 in the US. Now this is where I'm confused, I can't find anywhere on my flight test report that says 121 or 135.

Does any ppruner know if my checkride meets the requirement of 121 or 135? It would save me a whole lot of money and efforts not having to go back to Canada to do the IR flight test. At the end of the FAA A320 ride, the A320 type rating was added to my license (not limited to P2).

Thank you for your help,
