This is not correct, at least in the case of The Final Countdown. If you look up Draw in the Glossary section of the rules:

Draw
A player draws by moving a specified number of cards (one or more) from the top of their deck directly to their hand without revealing them to their opponent. When a rule or ability enables a player to draw multiple cards at once, it counts as a single draw event, rather than multiple individual draw events.

• If an ability triggers when a player draws, the ability triggers once for each draw event.
• If an ability triggers when a player draws a card, the ability triggers once for each individual card drawn.

The Final Countdown specifies that the Hero takes 1 damage each time they draw a card. So you would have to cancel its ability each time it triggered.

Correct, your cancel abilities in this discussion all specify a card as the target, so you have to choose one.
