The truth is Google is afraid of the Canadian user.
As a American who lives, travels, works and visits Canada regularly I am very disappointed to not have access to a Canadian number and am working hard with “other” companies to ensure Google gets paid back for it’s arrogant California attitude!!
I can’t see it either…
It’s probably a matter of copyright and laws. It will come to Canada for sure. Just wait a little bit. It takes time to submit the project to CRTC, for exemple, and them to accreditate Google to launch it.
Remember Satellite Radio, iPhones, etc..
