Is there a different grading criteria for these coins?

Technically, yes there is. The Canadian dime planchet is ~50% lighter than a cent planchet of that era so the usage of a much smaller planchet will produce a very weak strike because there is just not enough metal to fully fill all of the recesses of the dies during striking.
