Forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere.

Perhaps Disney will now create a special www.disney.ca website specifically for our neighbors to the north where they can get their own package/vacation deals/tickets and pay for their trip in their currency. UK visitors have enjoyed similar benefits for years.

1. Wouldn't Disney create a special web page for Brazil first? :)

2. A Canada page would make it too easy for U.S. folks to get a hold of goodies like 14 day unlimited tickets that might be advertised there.

Disney hints: http://www.cockam.com/disney.htm

Perhaps the solution is to provide just 1 website, the US one, not those specific to any certain country.

In any case, since Canadians are poised to outnumber Britons, I think that Disney should provide Canadians with all that it has provided the Britons over the years with regard to special ticket prices/packages, and the ability to pay in Canadian dollars if they want. Disney should also offer these deals to Americans since, well, it's an American institution.

As a Canadian... I will add. There is a DISNEY.CA, as well we can buy park tickets at CDN$ at the Disney Store in Canada.

This has been available for years... I remember in the mid 1990's byuing 5 and 7 day passes in CDN$ at par (with no expiry date as well).

You can only buy park tickets in CDNS at the Disney Stores (which are very few now... even the ones in Ottawa are closed). What would be an interesting add-on to Disney.Ca website is to have the possibility to acutally purchase, rooms, packages, etc. on that website in our currency without having to be re-directed to the US website or having to go through a TA.
