That is not a wolf, it’s a coyote.
I like the consistency of the stances used for the reference images. Helps provide useful contrast.
What really struck me was the reddish nose markings too. OP’s image looked like a coyote to me.
I've no real familiarity with taxonomy and am still unclear on whether this animal I recently spotted was a fox or coyote.
(I know the photo isn't good, it was taken at a distance while they were moving around, but I recommend you try not to miss the cub in the background!)
Looks like a foxote to me
It's a cox

An easy mistake, it just depends on which one was the mom and which one was the dad

Reminds me of Bat-yote, the crime fighter: https://youtube.com/watch?v=ulIOrQasR18
(I didn't time stamp, because the whole video is awesome)
Your assistance is appreciated.
Especially in Canada, there's going to be a large degree of hybridization. Coyotes have apparently also been shown to become more wolf-like (i.e., larger) in territories they have moved into since wolves were extirpated.
Possibly a coywolf though
