Currently Canadians are only allowed to stay six months in the US in a calendar year, even if they own a home there. As I understand it, that Bill has been stalled in the House for over a year.

This has nothing to do with the topic. However I just wanted to say that every Canadian resident alien I know purchases Emergency Travel Healthcare coverage in Canada before traveling to the US.
