We have lots of HMV stores in our big cities in Canada and I can buy the International Express, the Financial Times, the Telegraph and the Guardian in quite a few stores in Toronto.

I thought there were laws against the exporting of hazardous material.

Canada seems like a sensible country and so I guess that the Guardian has a government health warning on it. Something like "Reading this seditious and probably treasonous material enganders your prospects in this world and seriously imperils them in the next". If the people who export it have any sense, it will also be stamped with the legend "Warning: this document is in no way indicative of the opinions of the British people. We disclaim all liability for any injuries incurred by suggesting, on the strength of this material, to a Briton that he is a whale-hugging Europhile peacenik with nostalgia for the old Russian government."
