I'm not up to date on the latest genus for the megalodon lineage. Whatever you prefer to agree with, I believe there are only a few options available for the Hawthorn Fm. C. megalodon, C. chubutensis, and C. hubbelli.  There appears to be cusps, so I would assume it would be C. chubutensis. I remember a topic on the forum where @Shellseeker had posted several cusped teeth from the Peace River. Perhaps that topic has some insight on this tooth.

 

The other fossil is a carnivore premolar with partial mandible. My first thought was dire wolf. Can you give a measurement on the tooth? That may help confirm an ID.
