who are we?
you have to remember as well that we are in all consequence, a fairly insignificant country compared to dozens of others out there. we are indeed probably lucky to be so close to the usa as to get those games in our lands rather than having to import everything.
there are many canadian companies who cater only to americans as well. so, i pay and have paid up to 50% more for the same product in canada from a canadian company. the benefit is of course, cheaper shipping and after import duties and other concerns are factored in: it is just hard to be a canadian consumer! being so close to usa is our biggest problem as we have to notice everyday that just several hundred klicks to the south are prices we cannot even fathom! if we were across the pond, it might make more sense.
