There have been enough incidents of people helping out in these situations and 0 incidents of them being successfully sued.
If it was that much of an issue I expect we would have heard about at least one lawsuit by now.

It has nothing to do with borders, negligence analysis in Canada and the US is derived from the same body of law. And I'm sure there have been plenty of instances of people being sued, the fact that it doesn't show up in the Sun doesn't mean it hasn't happened. The success level of the suits may be a different story, but I can guarantee they happen.
