That's a matter of personal opinion, but I'm going to go with the general French and Canadian opinions on the matter and say that no, the French speak better French. Canadian French is a very interesting dialect, but in general native speakers of French--wherever they might come from--will think that the French spoken in France is the best, most grammatically correct form with the best pronunciation.

Did you listen to your question? That's like asking does anyone speak better French than the French. Its called 'French' for a reason. Everyone has their own dialect even in France.

France used to own large parts of Canada, like Britain used to own large parts of the US.

Why are there so many french people in Canada?

Because the Europeans who settled and colonized (some areas of) Canada were mainly from France. This created french-speaking areas that have remained until today. Most French-speaking people you meet in Canada aren't french, they're Canadians. French-speaking, but still very much Canadians. 'Course, if you're French speaking, and looking for another place to live, another french speaking nation would make the transition easier. If you don't speak good english, Canada would be easier than, say Alaska.
