I am a Canadian resident. I believe capital loss should not be charged
with U.S. withholding tax.

Assuming you are a nonresident alien and the taxes were paid to the US government that is who you apply for a refund with. You would need to file a 1040-NR (Nonresident) to claim any refund due.   TurboTax does not handle 1040-NR filing but you could contact one of our partners at Sprintax for assistance with that filing.

 

Here is an IRS link with more information on Nonresident Alien withholding.
