All the Nordic countries claim that Santa lives within their borders (Sorry that I forgot you, Iceland).
Ever since I was a kid I liked the idea of there being more than one Santa, and I imagined them distributing the work between them and visiting each other in the summer. So no matter where a country believe Santa to live, I think they’re right.
I know this is late, but the Minister of Immigration for Canada has legally said that Santa Claus is a Canadian citizen. So he lives everywhere but is Canadian! Sorry.
For the record, America is right on this one. Santa IS Canadian! (I believe the workshop is somewhere in the Northwest Territories) After all he even have a postal code here. I kid you not it's H0H 0H0 and they do a campaign every year where kids send letters to this address and he writes back to them. It's a cute tradition.
In Poland we believe Santa Claus lives in Finland And funny enough we also celebrate St Nicholas' Day (when we also get presents) on 6th December, which is a national holiday in Finland. When I found that they had a holiday on that that my first thought was: "Oh, you celebrate your Santa really seriously"

Lapland is Northern Norway, Northern Sweden, Northern Finland and Murmansk Oblast in Russia. So going with Lapland, Santa could live in either of those four, really. :P

Sweden and Norway don't even get cold enough for Him.
