"Famous Firesides of French Canada" by Mary Wilson Alloway contains a complete manual of some of the most famous villas and mansions in French Canada from Château de Ramezay to Chapel of Notre-Dame-de-la-Victoire. It also explores how architecture and culture changed as Canada passed under Britain's rule. Though the topic might seem niche, it helps you understand how the country has changed through the years and how that's reflected in its building designs.
