“Apple Canada is gearing up some of its representatives in advance of an upcoming event,” Electronista reports.
“Key staff are being asked to travel to the company’s Markham, Ontario regional headquarters for discussions that are taking place today,” Electronista reports.
“The discussions are considered secret, and staff contacted regarding the nature of the meetings have declined comment on any specifics,” Electronista reports. “However, they allude to preparations for upcoming Apple developments rather than a regularly scheduled meeting.”

Some secret. The bloodbath doth cometh.
“Apple Canada preps staff for upcoming ‘secret’ event”
A preemptive U.S. invasion?
Ampar,
Yes, they are. Molson supplies are low and they are pissed about being left out of the NHL finals.
Oh, and we all know how well preemptive attacks work.
probably briefing their staff on how to handle unhappy zune customers
at least the Moosehead stocks are good, and don’t forget the Lucky
Hey, didn’t the half dome iMac get leaked from the cover of Time Magazine in Canada the night before it actually came out. We really can trust those Canadians.
I do like the fact that the rumors now seem to be coming from other countries, which indicates emphasis on world release. With a world product, ya need a world release.
At a time AAPL should blossom, the economy brings it down…investment firms should put the shoe on the other foot for those who are selling their investments over fear and put a spotlight on AAPL as an temporary or longterm investment with a titanium shell to the world economy.
As I suspected, the iPhone 2.0 rumors are a front for the REAL announcement.
My guess: iMountees!
My friends, there’s a time to act and a time to think.
And this man has no time to think.
I guess south park said it best, “Blame Cnada” that is if nothing good comes out of this meeting (-8
@Anpar
Yes, the invasion plans have been kept very secret until now, but since we wanted to save Apple when we laid waste to the rest of the country we had to let them in on what was going down.
Remember we whipped the USA’s but last time we invaded you guys, so … watch out!

Thanks Cubert, you made my day!
“Oh, and we all know how well preemptive attacks work.”
Maybe I am reading too much into it but that was really funny!
chucks and guffaws
@Jeremy
HEY!! 1812 was a LONG time ago. And besides, we were drunk.
No more straight lines for Cubert. He’ll have to cut his own.
“HEY!! 1812 was a LONG time ago. And besides, we were drunk.”
And they still have the same muskets. (j/k)
@Cubert
Preemptive strikes work especially badly when you don’t do a through accurate job on your homework first.
@Ampar. We upgraded our Muskets. They now shoot stale Tim Horton’s doughnuts and cans of beer that actually tastes good.

We will woo you with maple syrup, Canadian bacon, good beer, good manners and great music. Just think about it, you wake up, have a great breakfast listening to Celine Dion all the while being served by polite, attractive people. And, you don’t have to worry about guns. We don’t use guns. We use tasers. We find them more effective for dealing with non-Canadians. Why use a bullet when you can send 40,000 volts through someone’s body. Dance, monkey, dance. It explains Balmer and his previous tirade. We attached a taser in the front of his pants and gave the remote control to Mike Myers.
iPhone? iWhy? Because iCan! iEh? iCanada our home and native land…..True patriot love, in all the sons command. (Notice the reference to the Apple Command key in our national anthem!)
The special event is that Canada is not going to get the iphone and they have to prepare a plan because people will be very mad and will destroy every single apple store in Canada… and rogers also….
Maybe the US want to get the Canadian oil like they did with Irak oil?
@HMCIV:
So how is that different now? Most of the upper midwest is still drunk, particularly in deer season (e.g., Wisconsin).
Of course, Canadians aren’t in much better shape. They may have better beer, however, which likely will lead to their downfall. If the boys in Wisconsin have to rely on Old Milwaukee or Old Style, we’re sure to win because you just can’t drink enough of that swill to stay drunk for long.
Oh Canada, bring it on!
How about these apples?
Pricing on all Apple products will be reduced to the same as in America?
Apple Canada will no longer need regional reps and they’re all being laid off?
News on the Apple Canada site is so out of date perhaps they’re announcing intel based macs?
Apple Canada office will be closed down and Apple Retail will take over Apple Canada? (that would be excellent).
Most likely……….annual staff golf game…
It’s funny that many of you decided to joke about an invasion or strike as the possible outcome…
They after the fish oil none then?
