I heard the same thing recently.  I'd like to find out the E-mail addresses
of some people at commodore Canada, to put pressure on them.   I might even
try regular mail.  It really irks me to hear about all of the great things
Commodore USA is doing, and Commodore Canada seem to be just sitting 
around on thier buts.
Maybe if enough of us Canadians get on their backs they'll do something 
about it.
