There are only 2 cities in Canada, according to Apple.
Canada has cities?
“Canada has cities?”
No, just really massive villages. And every one has a hockey team.
That’s still better than my last company.
Because their app didn’t have country field, they listed Canada as a state, so you had …Oregon, Ontario CN, etc.
I’m going to be there for the openning party for sure…..
You should always picture Canada as a cow that feeds in the west, is milked in Ontario and Québec and shits on the Maritimes.

@Tom
“Canada has cities?”
No, cities were invented by Americans. and yet to be exported to Canada just after the iPhone
@Big Al. I agree with you.
What about Calgary.
Canada: America’s Hat
I would expect that Vancouver will get one soon so that there is one in place before the Olympics in 2010. There are also persistent rumours that Apple is negotiating with the powers-that-be that run the West Edmonton Mall.
“Canada has cities?”
Sure.
St John’s … still angry about that insurrection in the 1770s.
Montreal … a beautiful French city
Toronto … a modern British city
Vancouver … from the heart of Southern California
Edmunton … Texas redux
You can travel the world and never leave Canada. It’s much like a theme park with each city a different theme. As for your previous company, Rob, the US tried to make that so … a few years back. Didn’t work out. Maybe it was that one-colonist-in-ten who ran north rather than switch?
With Global Warming, Canada may be seeing a lot of immigrants from the south … you guys ready?

What about Ottawa and Calgary?!?! Ottawa (my hometown) is only the capital of Canada people and Calgary is booming like crazy right now. Apple is being stupid by not putting Apple Stores in these cities. Apple was going to put an Apple Store here in Calgary but for stupid reasons never happened. C’mon Apple lets see retail stores in these cities!!
Good Apple… now please do the same in other countries all around the world. There should be a store in every major city of the world !!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Also, please bring iPhone down to Canada + all your movies to iTunes Canada, and elsewhere too.
The world is larger than NY.
Benedict Arnold’s biggest failure was not his treason, but rather his failure to conquer Canada in September 1775.
Apple definitely missed the boat in Calgary….probably the richest (large) city in North America.
@MacDaddy. …I thought everyone in Alberta wore a cowboy hat, voted conservative and used a PeeCee?
Montreal can use two stores because there are a Gazillion Macs around here.
Go Habs Go!
I’ll post it here first. Rumour has it Apple will open a major Toronto store at 1 Bloor East (corner of Yonge and Bloor). It will be located in the base of a new condo planned to be Canada’s tallest at 80 stories.
If Romney wins, I’ll be calling Vancouver Island home. Beautiful place, great cycling, fewer mormons.
@C1…but they are all over 75 years old and drive 10 kilometers per hour. Accidents caused by falling asleep at the wheel never result in fatalities although the rate of those being bored to death is rising at an alarming rate.
Do you like wilderness, big trees, and isolation that much?
Also…

Did you put in the extra m in mormons on purpose?
when it opens, probably before Thanksgiving, 2008
Thanksgiving. I believe you Yanks call that weekend “Columbus Day”.
@ Buster
I’m from rural Washington. Victoria is like Metropolis to me. And you can still get decent coffee, great beer, and the homeless people are nicer that most US Customer Service workers.
Did I?
Let me tell you about Calgary.
There are over 50,000 Americans living here.
It’s a great place to live, work and play.
50,000 Americans can’t be wrong.
Five stores in Ontario & Quebec? As usual it appears western Canada doesn’t exist. What about a store in Vancouver?!! You know it’s only Canada’s third largest city!
I think this location is perfect, thus the store will soon prove too small.
