There used to be a switch on some older equipment, to change voltages.  I seem to remember it was on older VCRs.

That used to be commonplace. You could slide it to the wrong setting, then turn the power on and watch the smoke. :)

Canada is 110, like the US - most things here are pretty much the same given they are joined. Its in Canada's interests too - as it keeps things cheap for them. Still I'll never get used to these silly power plugs.
