For example Kelley Armstrong is a Canadian author. She has sold her Canadian rights to Random House Canada, her US rights to Penguin (Plume) and her UK rights to Orbit (Little, Brown Book Group)
Interesting, so "things are not what they seem".. so far I buy popular titles from big publishers so chances are that those books that I want to buy are marked as available for Canadians in Amazon.com site.
