It is one I have never heard of around here and Canada does have a lot of dinosaur fossils.
I think muttaburrasaurus is only found in Australia and many specimens have been found.

The American mastodon had a similar appearance to elephants but were covered with a thick coat of shaggy hair. Compared to mammoths, mastodons had shorter legs, a longer body and were more heavily muscled. They had a low and long skull with long curved tusks with those of the males being more massive. The American Mastodon could grow upto 3 m (10 ft) tall and weighed 5 - 8 tonnes. Mastodons had cusp-shaped teeth, very different from mammoth and elephant teeth,well-suited for chewing leaves and branches of trees and shrubs.
Fossils have been found in North America.
