AppleInsider StaffCanadian users now have access to a localized version of Apple's iTunes music store, though no official announcement has been made by the computer company.
Several Mac users discovered the store after seeing a "Canada" option appear under the iTunes Music Store "Country" selection menu.
The majority of the content present in the store appears to be priced at $0.99 Canadian.
It's remains unclear if Apple has officially launched the store.
On Wednesday, the company officially acknowledgment a delay in opening the Canadian music store for business, but told the press to expect an announcement 'very soon.'

Ummm...you can select the Canadian store, but it seems to bring you right back to the U.S. one.
edit: my bad...had to change my country in my profile.

I'm in the Canadian store, and pricing seems a bit wacky. The new 37 track Depeche Mode remixes collection is priced at $9.99 (C$). Haven't bothered trying to take advantage of this price, but this can't be right.

Patience is not a virtue on this forum.

Don't we have fun!
In due time all will be back to normal.......except.......when will the Japanese store open!
