Even, as a Canadian naturalized citizen , u are always subject to CBP to enter the US so be prepared to show proofs listed in the following The burden of proof that the Canadian citizen is not an intended immigrant (plans to make the United States their primary residence) is always on the applicant. There is no set period of time Canadians must wait to re-enter the United States after the end of their stay, but if it appears to the CBP officer that the person applying for entry is spending more time over-all in the United States than in Canada, it will be up to the traveler to prove to the officer that they are not de-facto U.S. residents. One of the ways to do this is to demonstrate significant ties to their home country, including proof of employment, residency, etc. https://help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-619?language=en_US#:~:text=Residents of Canada who are,to have a valid passport.
