DRL stands for "Daytime Running Lights", which is standard and required safety measure on all Canadian vehicles. It's normal for the vehicle to automatically display this as an indication that your DRL is engaged, meaning just the headlights are on during daytime driving, but not your taillights. When you switch on your headlights at night, it disengaged the DRL.
If you're located in Canada, it's illegal to override this system, but here in the US you can. You can add a relay to override the system, but because the default is still that the DRLs come on every time you start the car, you have to consciously turn them off.
