It is called back bacon or peameal bacon.

No one country can claim the invention of bacon, however, there is a difference in the type of bacon depending on where in the world you are. In the UK, Streaky bacon is popular. In Canada, there are three popular types, Regular (cured pork belly) also known to some as streaky, Pea meal and Canadian (or Windsor) which is more like a smoked ham(?!?). Canadian or Windsor bacon is what traditionally is used in Eggs Benedict. Pea meal is most popular in Ontario, and everyone in Canada loves regular bacon.
Not anymore, but peameal bacon was distinctively a Canadian product years ago. Real Canadian Peameal bacon is cut from the boneless loin of pork, fat is trimmed to 1/8 inch and sweet pickle cured the product was rolled in crushed/ground yellow peas to preserve freshness. No smoke used. Canadian bacon sold in the USA on the other hand is plain old lean back bacon sometimes with a coating of cornmeal. Normal bacon is cut from the belly of the hog, smoked and thin sliced.
Canadian Bacon
Canadian bacon, also known as back bacon, is made from the pork loin, which is a lean and tender cut of meat. Its taste is similar to ham because both are made from pork, but Canadian bacon is typically less salty and has a milder flavor. Additionally, the processing and curing methods used to make Canadian bacon can contribute to its ham-like taste.
Pigs. Canadian bacon is from the centre-cut of a boneless pork loin. A bit of trivia for you, you won't find anything called Canadian Bacon in Canada. It's called Peameal Bacon here. No one can say for sure where the name originated. Best guess is sometime in the 19th century when England imported side bacon from Canada. Someone that translated into Canadian Bacon when it hit the American market.
Peameal bacon is like Canadian bacon and it is made in a southern part of Ontario.
Canada
Canadian bacon isn't ham. Canada Bacon is pretty much just regular bacon.
Nope. "Canadian" bacon is actually just plain back bacon. According to pop culture legend, after the war, there was a pork shortage in England so they imported pork from Canada. An American businessman happened to come upon the cured meats in a butcher shop during a trip to England and sampled it and liked it. When he asked what the meat was (referring to the type of dish) the butcher replied "It's Canadian" (referring to the origin of the meat). That's why US mostly refers to it as "Canadian Bacon" while in other countries its simply called "back bacon"... and in Canada "pea-meal bacon" when its wrapped in yellow peas (which is actually cornmeal now).

Actually, Canadian bacon is ham - I lived in Canada for several years as a small child, and that's what all Canadians call it - and it is. Bacon is cured and smoked meat from the rib cage of the hog. Ham is what we'd call the pig's "hip" or "thigh"
It is called this, simply because we use the same principle of cooking ham the way Canadians did. They call it Back Bacon, while we refer to the same technique as Canadian bacon. Sometimes it is called Irish bacon.
