How do canadians view close economic ties between Canada and the US?

Negatively. Confederation was in part the result of American trade practices. Canadians did not want reciprocity with the USA. They voted on the issue again in 1911 and again voted against closer ties with the USA.
The last vote on the topic occurred in 1988 and again the majority of Canadians voted against closer economic ties with the USA. Those wishes were ignored and Canada was taken into the Free Trade Agreement and into Global trade agreements they have not voted for.
Many Canadians want an independent Canada and that is not possible when they do not have the freedom to control their own trade, business and exports or the ability to defend their land militarily. There are also cultural concerns as the USA sees culture as an export product.

The British, Americans, Canadians, and natives.
