Is Canada 'domestic' for check-in purposes?

I tried to do a search but this new search just don't like me. I will be flying LGA-YYZ on Friday. I know it is cutting it close but I won't be ready to leave downtown Manhattan till 1045am and my flight is at 12pm. I will probably try and leave by 1015am to be safe.

The AA website says

DOMESTIC TRAVEL
In addition to checking in 30 minutes before departure, you must be present at the departure gate and ready to board at least 15 minutes prior to scheduled departure time to retain your reservation and a seat.

For customers checking baggage, cutoff time for baggage check-in is 30 minutes before departure for all airports in the U.S., Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands with the following exceptions:
I am a little confused by this. Does this mean I can check in at LGA 30 minutes before departure with luggage? I probably won't have any anyway, but if I don't what's the latest I can check in? OLCI is not an option since it's Canada.

Thanks,
