It’s the same with canadian and asian airlines. Is it not the case in the US?

I just assumed all airlines did it.

Last year I flew domestic U.S. on several airlines and the preflight safety briefing on all of them included a line that passengers should always keep their seat belt buckled for safety whenever seated (or something to that effect).

I didn't want to claim it was universal when I've mostly flown within Europe.
