Canada
North America
English-speaking Canada's Hot 100 moves in lockstep with the United States. Ella Langley's 'Choosin' Texas' held #1 across April and May 2026, and homegrown stars Drake, The Weeknd, Justin Bieber and Tate McRae are permanent fixtures in the top five. Quebec runs a parallel French-language chart where artists like Charlotte Cardin and a deep bench of Quebec rappers post very different numbers from what Anglophone Canada is streaming. The result is essentially two domestic markets sharing one country.

Generational / regional / economic split
Anglophone Ontario and British Columbia consume music almost identically to the US — country, hip-hop and pop in roughly the same proportions Billboard reports south of the border. Quebec's francophone market is its own ecosystem, with Chansons quebecoises and French-language hip-hop from acts like Loud and FouKi anchoring the chart. First Nations and Inuit artists receive structured government support but rarely break the commercial top 40. The Toronto / Drake-orbit R&B and rap scene is the one Canadian sound that consistently exports both south and across the Atlantic.
