I really don't want to sound rude or pushy, and I'm sorry that I might but … hey, did you forget about us? TeenInk.com is available to countries all over the world, but it seems you must live in the States to receive the magazine. What the heck?

Canada is probably the USA's closest equal. The only separation is distance, right? Couldn't we pay extra for shipping? I'm just looking for some fairness.
