If we are just talking about the search engine, does google offer services in Canadan via local caching, or do Canadians have to retrieve Googles services from the US. It is probably a relevant question, at least legally. Ethically I think there is no "fair" way to do page rankings that would both yield the results people want and avoid pages with false accusations.
Also, legally If google were to start filtering the information it provided in the US based on some criteria other than "we think this is most likely what you were searching for, and look these people paid us to have you look at these first" then they would fall afoul to US laws that would remove their common carrier status. At least that is my understanding.

This is a common but completely incorrect misconception. Read the first bolded subsection.
