I have tried it when i was in the USA's and it was pretty good. The online search is limited to Bing and Edge but it was pretty good. Kinda creepy. But good.

Cortana English for Canada is coming soon. It is available if you are an Insider Preview.

It should be coming in a month or so officially.

In the mean time, you can set the system to United States, and you can turn on Cortana now.

Nope not in Canada.  Dunno why not.

 

Same thing with iOS with some SIRI options and a few others on iOS.

 

Not sure what Silicon Valley has against Canada.

Cortana is designed for the cultural difference in each country. They do research and adapt Cortana for that region, even make new animations and in the case of China redesign it completely.

Microsoft did a video on that a while back.
