One question - you do take a lot of time and effort to try and move the narratives in Canada away from the stereotypes (Quebec terrorists, American-Canadian misunderstanding, etc) but then, in the villains and plot section of the GM chapter... you put them back in, why?
Part of it, I'm sure, is authorial laziness and cluelessness.

However, in at least two cases -- Punition and the Constable -- the intent was to use the stereotypes, then subvert them by twisting it by either showing its ridiculousness, or by twisting it in an unexpected direction.
