aura one and overdrive

hey all,
I am having the hardest time getting overdrive set up on my new Kobo Aura One. I am following the instructions, but I'm stuck where it asks for the library card. It says enter your card and you will be redirected back once you are signed it. It brings me to the overdrive website on the browser, and says I am signed in, but I do not get redirected. When I go into the overdrive section in the settings, it says I'm signed in, but that I need to add a library card, but when I try to add it, the same thing keeps happening! Am I missing something?
I tried using the kobo live chat, and what a waste of time! I even went so far as to factory reset it , based on their suggestion! Any tips or tricks would be much appreciated

Where are you located? Overdrive is not supported in all countries.

Can I assume from moose416, Canada and Toronto?

What happens if you skip the Overdrive login and go more or less directly to selecting your library and signing in?
