Absolutely. When you're in Canada, Canadian copyright law applies, and you can legally copy(download) anything that's out of copyright under those laws.

There's no need to delete the file from your HD when crossing the border. It might be illegal for you to view the file after leaving Canada, as that would involve making more copies of the file (in your computer's memory if nowhere else). Or that might be a permitted use, or otherwise OK, depending on exactly what your country's copyright laws say.
