    Is/has there been any talk about allowing BA subscriptions in Canada? I for one would pay a little extra for cross border postage.

    There has been. It's something we're currently working on and hope to offer soon.

    Thanks for your interest. Cheers!

    I've had a subscription for some time now. Why can't it be done anymore?

    The money we paid for shipping wasn't worth our resources, nor was it fair to the subscriber, due to unreliable delivery services. We've been researching options since.

    I'm also from Canada and would love to purchase a subscription!!

    What about making it available online through something like Zinio? You won't have to deal with shipping problems then.

    I am quite disappointed to be honest. You could have just said - there is no way international subscribers will get the mag again and I would accept it. Because I read about "researching options" already back in 2011. Almost a year has passed and only thing I keep on receiving is these useless monthly magazine renewal notices from which I cannot get rid of.

    Whatever. I was being honest, and if I said what you suggested I should've said I'd be lying.

    Also, there's a link to remove yourself from the notices in the renewal emails ... and we're offering international this summer as we've finally found a solution.

    Hey Todd, I'm in Canada and a founder magazine subscriber. Can you tell how this new international solution will effect us founder magazine members, if at all? Cheers.
