I think the Ticketmaster comment is a miscommunication.
Of course a Canadian wanting to attend a US show will have to go through the US site. The US site represents the stadium for all purposes of point of purchase and taxable income. However, a Canadian show/date will occur on the Canadian site (Toronto,Vancouver). The point of purchase and the collection of data to report taxable income must come from the country in which the stadium is hosting the gig. Simple as that. It is law.
I think the representative of Ticketmaster, in this case, is assuming all NA shows are in the USA.
I'm just saying what she told me. She's well aware of the Canadian shows. She simply said tickets will be able to be purchased for US shows via ticketmaster.com. For Canadian dates it'll have to be via livenation or presale as ticketmaster.ca won't be selling them.
But do not take this as gosspel. She could be wrong but she's fairly versed whe it comes to these things. Just passng along info but by all means don't take my word for it 100%. I agree it seems weird.
