What would be different about a sundial in the north pole?
A sundial in the north pole would have a steeper and shorter gnomon compared to sundials in lower latitudes. The spacing of the hour markers in a sundial in the north pole would be same; the hour lines would be 24 hours.
Why is it important to consider the angle of correction to the North Pole when setting up a sundial?
Assuming you are using a compass to align the sundial, it will point to the Magnetic North Pole. The Earth rotates about the True North Pole, which is not in the same location. By obtaining the magnetic variation for your locale, you can make the adjustment and have an accurate set up.

north celestial pole
Why would you expect a compass to be more accurate near the equator or in the polar region why?
Since the geographic north pole and the magnetic north pole are different places, the farther you are from the north pole, the less the difference matters.
Do magnetic poles that are different repel each other?
"Like" magnetic poles repel one another. "Unlike" poles attract one another. In other words, a North pole and a North pole would repel while a North pole and a South pole would be attracted.
