One looked like a LongRanger and the other looked like a Hiller UH-1

Hiller-
The Hiller appears to be a FH1100.

I think that the one you think is a Hiller is a Bell 47J Ranger or an H-13J.

Not only is it a Bell 47 as in the link picture, it looks like the exact ship.
I don't know about Canada, but Bell 47 rangers are quite rare in the lower half
of North America.

I think that the one you think is a Hiller is a Bell 47J Ranger or an H-13J.

Back in the early 80s one of the local
radio stations flew a number of 47s including this 47J model. Still listed
as
being active.
