No need to nitpick, I think what Jake meant to say was "available from US
Shop at Home" which is where anyone in the US or Canada would order from.

Mike,
I am not nitpicking, I just want LEGO to remember and acknowledge we are
here. I find I miss having our own S@H in our own currency. I also have
other reasons I don't want to bring up here, for the sake of preventing
futile debate.
I guess I am more patriotic than I thought :-)

I understand your point but at the same time, had you still had Canadian
S@H, the Super Cars they found today wouldn't have been available for you
(you being Canadian residents) to order [1]. Like most things, there are
pluses and minuses depending on your perspective.
My last comment on this topic as well, I see no value in a debate either.
Mike
[1] - Unless the Super Cars they found today were part of the inventory that
moved to the US when they shut down Canadian S@H in which case they wouldn't
have been available to the rest of the North American market. Where they
came from is probably something we'll probably never know.

I hear you. I'm getting VERY tired of having to mail in my order or get
nailed an extra 12% plus shipping on VISA phone orders... I'm tired of it.
