No, Goodman is not a Canadian company; Goodman is an American company owned by a Japanese multinational. Goodman Manufacturing was founded in 1982 by Harold Goodman in Houston, Texas, and is headquartered in Waller, Texas, near Houston, where it operates a large manufacturing facility called the Daikin Texas Technology Park that also makes Daikin and Amana branded HVAC equipment. Goodman has been owned since 2012 by Daikin Industries, Ltd., which is headquartered in Osaka, Japan, founded in 1924, and is the world's largest HVAC manufacturer by revenue with over 90,000 employees globally. While Goodman is American and Japanese owned, it does have significant presence and sales in Canada through Canadian HVAC distributors and authorized dealers, with products certified to CSA standards for Canada and designed to handle cold Canadian winters with furnaces up to 98 percent AFUE. Goodman furnaces and air conditioners sold in Canada are primarily manufactured in the US and Mexico at Daikin's facilities. Canadian-owned HVAC companies include Napoleon Heating and Cooling headquartered in Barrie, Ontario. So Goodman is American-owned by Japanese parent Daikin, not Canadian, though widely available and popular in Canada for affordable HVAC.
