Canada was Britain's breadbasket during the Second World War. The Metis revolt was also a very interesting struggle. Quebec is an interesting case study of 20th century nationalism. In the 60s, there was Canadian mediation of the Suez Crisis, one of the defining moments of Canadian foreign policy.

Canadian history is as interesting as you want to make it.

canada is shit from the get -go: it's creation is just a knee jerk reaction to the creation of the usa, and they unified the country with bribes: that macdonald fellow is a fucking class A piece of shit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_Scandal .
also, to "develop the country" they thought it would be a good idea to basically GIVE AWAY the natural resources to fucking flaky apatrid rich brit bongs: they cleared the forests of precious old trees, left puddle of toxic waste everywhere when they are done etc . corruption, mediocrity, the worst kind of cynicism: they should have all get rounded up and shot in the head, for people' s sake.
