Is there any way to change android dictionaries to Canadian spelling?  Like for autocorrect to spell the words like "colour" instead of "color"?  Changing the language to "English (Canada) (QWERTY)" seems to be the exact same as US English.

You could try English UK? Although if that doesn't work, might have to change the settings in the phone itself instead of the keyboard settings?

The example spelling you give is the English (UK) way to spell that so i suspect y'all up north in Americas hat spell things like the brits do. Americans dropped the U in a lot of English words as part of our constant fuck you to the brits. Like if you ever wonder what state Massachusetts is its the one flipping off the brits.

Canadian spelling is a mixture of rules from both American and UK English.
