I don't know for certain but could it be they only own the licence for the USA? I mean a lot of stuff is technically illegal to sell in other countries. For example in the UK I can buy US manga off the shelf but they aren't ment to do it. That's why we have just got a load of crappy UK publishing houses that are offshoots of the American companies such as Tokyopop and Viz that mean it's hard as hell for me to complete my Viz manga collections for example with all Viz titles instead I get crap with 'Gollancz' written down the side.
I don't know if that's how it works in Canada, maybe they are allowed to do it because it's so close I don't know.
