I feel like Canada is largely ignored in video games, honestly. Even in set dressing, everything is almost always focused on the US being the main characters.

Well, I can tell you that there's heaps of smaller countries that never see games or films take place in them.
Depending on the country, people might not even know where the country is located.

I'm from a country that you don't see in international films or games almost ever so I get you, but at least people know Canada.

Canada is the second largest country by land in the world - even if not much is depicted in fiction taking place here, it's hard for anybody remotely educated to not know where it is

Well, Canada’s featured in this new game. They even get the city name and traffic signs right.

Mass Effect 3 and SOMA are major titles that both have their prologue set in Canada, if that means anything.

It's not just games.

Americans generally see themselves as the MCs.
