I am unable to rent a movie on my AppleTV. I get a statement that I can only rent from the Canadian account, yet I am in the US.
Options?
AppleTV 2
your Apple ID is bound to the country it is registered.
Your option would be either create an additional Apple ID that is for USA, or change the country of the current one

If you decide to change the current ID - you will be prompted to update your billing information, therefore you have to have an address in USA and since you would like to purchase/rent - you may need a credit card that is issued in USA.
Would I be able to rent directly from my Canadian account, ie. from the Canadian iTunes Store. If so how?
Yes, you can use your Canadian account no matter where you are.
How do I get to this account and rent a movie? It seems to default to the US iTunes Store.
the link I provided above has step-by-step information how to sign in and how to rent a movie on Apple TV
iTunes states I can only rent movies from my Canadian account. I am in the US and want to rent a movies on my AppleTV.
