That company will likely be deemed to be a Canadian corporation responsible for Canadian taxes because the entirety of the control structure is in Canada, owned by a Canadian Citizen. You will also be responsible for Canadian taxes because you are in Canada receiving income.

That being said, you will likely not be double taxed as the treaty between US and Canada would ensure that you will not pay more taxes than country with the highest taxes, which is Canada.
