I'd say BC Place is definitely a unique building, thanks to its current state (roof + renovations) as well as its history. I'd say an argument can be made for TD Place given the quality of the new stands and the "arena inside a stadium" uniqueness of the old stands, but it'd be a hard one since those old stands just aren't very nice.
Canada has always seemed to prioritize function over architecture when we build stadiums and arenas. Outside of the three JHikka mentioned (and the Saddledome if we're including arenas), I can't think of any truly unique buildings in the country.
