I want to buy the GAME-1 server currently advertised at $56.76 but when I log on to our account it redirects to the Canadian version of the site and the price is now $172,67 instead of $56.76 ...

Why is this deal available only to US-based accounts? This is so unfair and frustrating. The exact same server hosted in the exact same datacenter will cost you 3X more just because you live in Canada instead of USA? Why are you ripping off Canadian customers and advertising a price that is discriminately available only to some nationalities, without even mentioning on your site that this deal is available for US citizens only?

Here is what happens. GAME-1 server is advertised at a price of $56.76

But when I click "continue" to buy, this popup appears

... and when you click "continue", surprise surprise, your price is multiplied by 3X, thanks OVH such a great deal...

Same server, same hardware, same data center, same location... But two different prices according to the nationality of the account owner. 3X more expensive if you're born in Canada instead of the USA. WTF is this nonsense marketing?
