Well, there is roughly about 25% of Canadians who were not, and still aren't enamored too much by the British too, they're called Quebecers

Joke aside, I guess the frustration you feel about Kobo in the U.S. is basically the same frustration a lot of Canadians feel towards Amazon! You would think it shouldn't be that difficult to get these new Kindles over the northern border at the same time they do in the U.S. But no! It takes forever, like months and months before Amazon finally starts shipping their new Kindle releases in Canada.

And that's why I own a Kobo

But even if you're in the US, can't you just order your Kobo through a 3rd-party vendor (like shopereaders.com or a similar store) ?
