There are rules in place to determine if you are a resident in that country. When you are going down for a business trip, you are still employed in Canada and being paid in Canada. Going down for a 2 week trip isn't going to cause you pay US taxes. If you were down there living for six months (or longer) and working for a company down there, you'd have to pay local taxes.
