Do you have DSC button to the bottom left of your steering column, next to the light dimmers? If so, press it (Or hold it for 10 sec...)

I don't remember my manual having this ability ... but you do not have an LSD so you may be able to spin one tire

You're welcome.
I have family that lives in New Brunswick, and friends that live in Nova Scotia, so always happy to help out a maritime Canuckle-head.

Probably only when going around a corner.
And you're better off speeding around instead of trying to do burn outs.
Less damaging stress on the drive train.

As for the limited slip, it might or might not have it, depending on the model car you have, and if the original owner ordered it as an add on.
