That's awesome!
It's true that the regional architectural styles vary across the country. Having lived in western Canada (BC) and having visited Alberta, I was accustomed to seeing 20th century wood-frame houses in neighbourhoods. When I first went to Ontario (Ottawa), I was amazed at all the Victorian brick architecture. Montreal, of course, has its own aesthetic which is dramatically different from the west... and as you drive along the back roads to Quebec City, you pass by all these old Quebecois farm houses using the more traditional architecture and you know you're not in Kansas anymore!
I think that's a major phenomenon among Canadians, however. So many assume what's in their back yard is universal across the country...
... but when you start exploring other regions in the country, you begin to see Canada as the diverse country it is, and that there is no real "Canadian" aesthetic when it comes to architecture... but we have a collection of regional styles.
And on another note... I honestly thought that when I was going to open this thread, it would be about Montreal!!!
I thought, "Oh man... not ANOTHER person who's trying to sell Montreal as "a slice of Paris in Canada" *gag*...
