A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc
I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:
For me it's Corner Gas. I still think it's pretty funny and there's a decent amount of references to Canadian stuff but not enough to be off-putting. I feel like an American wouldn't be confused watching it even if some of the references get a bit dated overtime.
I have only seen a bit of the animated version in waiting rooms.
I'm probably showing my age but I can't believe no-one has mentioned Degrassi Junior High and Degrassi High. I grew up with Joey, Wheels, Snake, Spike, Stephanie etc. Looking back, that was a pretty hard-hitting show aimed at teenagers.
Love Corner Gas
I just started rewatching This Is Wonderland on Tubi.
Other than that, mostly ones that have already been mentioned plenty, but I'll call out Due South and Murdoch Mysteries as big ones.
Barely Cooking
Not a show, but the first thing that came to mind when I read the question is that Canadian ad... the Log Driver's Waltz.
King of Kensington, Adventures in Rainbow Country, Smith and Smith, All Around the Circle, The Irish Rovers Show, The Wolfman Jack Show, Front Page Challenge, This Is the Law, The Beachcombers, The Friendly Giant, The Littlest Hobo, Mr. Dressup
Ready or Not
Student Bodies
Wayne & Schuster.
They were fun!
The Galloping Gourmet!
( reading this page is hilarious, btw.. : )
Another vote for Kids in the Hall, the sharpest humour I recall from all of TV-era..
National Film Board stuff, that is one of the deepest treasure-wells we've got, in Canada..

Stargate SG1. Supernatural.
In addition to all the other comments, Just for Laughs: Gags is one of my perennial favorites. It's like hidden camera mime gags, where a passerby is left holding the bag, usually literally.
The Tommy Hunter Show.
I had a girlfriend who worked in the Vancouver film and TV industry (mostly as just a low level P.A. But eventually getting some Accounting work on tv series, etc...)
So when I think of Canadian TV I automatically think of the CW DC shows (Arrow, Flash, etc...) as well as a crazy amount of mid-budget sci-fi (Andromeda, Continuum, etc...). most of which was all filmed in Vancouver sharing the same pool of Canadian "that guy" actors.
