Yes, Julia . . . I loved it and lost it! Yet another Cornus that seems to prefer acid soil :(

I'm sure you don't need suggestions(?), but my shady area is covered with Pulmonaria, Epimedium, Brunnera and Vinca. Hope your C. Canadensis will be happy!

I've grown it. It did ok. Took a while to settle in though, so don't be downhearted if it's slow to get going.
