I read in a lease contract that they forbid installing satellite dish on
balconies. Is it normal in Canada? What is the reason or legal foundation?

In US: " For example, a lease restriction that forbids tenants from
damaging the balcony floor when installing an antenna is likely to be
permissible."

Hence in US, "damaging the balcony floor"

What does the lease say?

Concrete blocks might be used....sitting blocks on the balcony.

The lease does not give any reason. And I won't fix the dish antenna
using concrete or anything -- I like to switch satellites.
