I don't know why Americans have so much trouble with this fundamental principle: If you are living in Another Country, then you are subject to the laws of that country. That includes Family Law. It doesn't matter where you come from (even the USA) or where you're living. So, yes, if the child is a resident of Canada, it is subject to the rulings of a Canadian court. A Canadian judge can appoint a guardian for an American child living in Canada. The guardian may be Canadian; it may be an American resident in Canada. The main criteria is suitability, not nationality.
