Using consumer grade (priced) equipment, you best hope for seeing any signals from Canada would be an Antennas Direct XG-91, their CPA-18 or CPA-19 preamp, mounted on a 5' tripod + 10' HD mast at the roof peak.
I would expect that you would see some signals, at least intermittently, weather and atmospheric conditions would often rule.
Mounting at eave height would likely rob you of precious signal.
(From Canada, I now see only CHEK-6)
Sorry, I don't have a recommendation for antenna installers.
A while back you asked,

Closed or open loop?
Another question... I have an ohmmeter so I can measure the RG6 cable, the inside and outside shielding... Once I connect my RG6 cable to antenna leads via twin-lead to coaxial adapter, and I measure for ohms across the terminal of either the RG6 itself or directly on the antenna leads, is it open (infinite resistance) or closed (some ohm readings)?

It depends on the matching transformer design. Many will have low resistance from center conductor to shield. There are designs that appear 'open', virtually infinite resistance.
