That's right, Peter. Publishers buy and sell rights to sell books in different markets. To maintain Kobo's enormous catalogue we're obliged to respect the territorial rights publishers claim for every title they offer. And when we discover a gap, such as the lack of Louise Penny for sale in Canada (thanks, blue shoes!), you can be sure we'll chase it.
But I agree that it's annoying for our predictive search to suggest titles that we can't sell you. Batkinson001's David Eddings search is a great example. We need to fix that.
And we need to chase the rightsholders for Canada and get them to make these for sale.
