[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1686962"] That's because the provider (I believe, it is what I was told) intercepts all Google.com requests and redirects to Google.ca. DDG doesn't have a .ca version, ergo we get the only (US centric) version. I encourage people in other countries to join me in asking DDG to consider adding enough smarts to at least "localize the results," though I acknowledge that might compromise the perception of their chief advantage. (Post accusing me of being a DDG fanboy in 3, 2, ...) [/QUOTE]
