Yes AAA's card works in Canada and is honored by the CAA, Canada's
equivalent.  The same goes for Canadian's traveling here.  I know this as
I had my clutch slave cylinder go in Ontario while going cross country.
I was in route from Niagara Falls to Detroit.  It was unexpected but the
local VW dealer had me back on the road the next day and since I wasn't
in a hurry I took the time to enjoy the local museums, etc.  Between AAA
and my car insurance the hotel I stayed in and a rental was all covered.
