that's because you set the Canvas as ScreenSpace - overlay.
ScreenSpace - overlay appeared as a really big objects in the scene view, and intended to be used as separated UI from the world view
if you want the canvas to be as big as the camera in scene view, simply change it to ScreenSpace - Camera or WorldCanvas and set the mainCamera as the Render Camera
