The newer Charlton guides have text definitions of Canadian grades too.
A lot of people refer to this site as well for pictures (scroll down):

It should also be noted that Canadian and US graders may not see eye-to-eye,
and that even within the ranks of skilled Canadian graders, some will be more conservative
than others.
IMO, it's good to err on the conservative side, and make your purchases accordingly.
