The Roku Ultra goes on sale for about 69$ very regularly, and looks like it went down to 50$ last black Friday. Maybe gives more evidence to /u/Somar2230/'s post saying it will be 50$ this black Friday as well.
You can see the price history of both here:

Looks like the lowest a new Premier has been on Amazon is 29$. I'm sure both are great devices. I got the Ultra just cause I like being able to control the TV power and volume w/ the Roku remote. I also thought the wifi might be better and like the option of having a wired ethernet port. My last Roku lasted quite a few years so I figured why not just get the best one. I would look through the feature list another user posted and see if any matter for you.
Let me Google that for you:

Also, Roku has quite limited content available in Canada compared to the US, and in particular lacks support for many Canadian networks/stations. No CBC, no TVO, CTV, City .....
Roku Ultra handles everything really nicely. Link at the bottom is the amazon link to the 2018 model. https://www.roku.com/products/roku-ultra https://www.amazon.com/Roku-Ultra-Streaming-Player-Voice-Headphones/dp/B07HDHXZH4/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=roku+ultra&qid=1556323707&s=gateway&sr=8-3
I ran into the same issue with Apple TV, which isn't supported either. DISH/SlingTV/AirTV, if you're paying attention, I've been waiting two years for Apple TV support! What is taking so long? Sorry, had to get that out of my system.
Unless you really love the "smart" part of your Samsung TV, you could add a supported set-top box, or streaming stick. I've been pleased with our Roku Ultra. The remote for the Ultra, and for the Roku Streaming Stick+ as well, can control the TV's power and volume, which enables a single-remote solution. The remote for Amazon's new Fire TV Stick 4K also controls TV power and volume.
