USA's biggest export has always been culture. Western countries without legally-mandated (weaker) cultures have pretty much always just absorbed American culture wholesale. We are seeing Canada's attempt to protect a Canadian identity now with laws that Netflix and Spotify have to carry at least 30% Canadian-made programming.
But there's only so much Bieber and Rush you can listen to and I honestly can't even think of a Canadian television show.
So you can see that this frog has already been boiled.
