| Canada didn't have a whole lot of Sonic stuff, but what there is, is certainly worth looking at! A lot of the time Canada could import things from the USA (which had loads of stuff) because there weren't annoying things like region-locks or whole oceans getting in the way or raising import costs for buyers of cool stuff. However, for some reason, the things that were made in Canada, tended to stay there and not filter down into the USA or go around the world...which is sort of dissapointing because there's cool stuff here too! The items here can be a mix of classic & modern. |

Here's a rather rare shirt. It was made & distributed in Canada. (see tag) This was made for Sonic 1, and you can see they use the Japan art of Sonic and place him in the winged ring from the title screen. The border says "His Name Is Sonic". Woolco stores (like a department store) had this shirt. You're actually looking at the back of it. The front top left chest area has that WoolCo logo you see in the inset. This was made in adult sizes. Woolco is no longer in business, it was bought out by WalMart in 1994 . This is a curious collectible shirt with an interesting graphic & style.

Here's something interesting, 2 different kinds of Sonic Adventure 1 chocolates. One is a bar with peanut, peanut butter, and caramel, coated in chocolate. The other is a peanut butter cup (complete with edge-ridges) which must be like a Reesy Cup. The last is the store display you never saw them dispensed from! Canadian Sonic Adventure 1 Chocolates These are annoying, because they were obviously planned out, yet magically no one's ever seen them. Being Sonic Adventure 1, they were recent as well. You can tell these are not from the USA or England, because they are weighed in Grams and not Ounces. |

| These are the company's own photos, taken from a now-defunct website. These were supposed to be released in Canada and the USA, but despite the good looks of these photos, they were scarce. They must have originated in Canada first, due to the spellings and the measurments. | |||||||||||||||||

Are these the boxes of chocolate from the displayer above? They sure look like they could be. The red isn't as burgundy as it appears above, but the pose & look of the boxes are pretty much the same. Why are they two different colors? The page just mentioned Chocolate & PB, with a trading card. Did they actually end up coming with a card? It's very interesting to see that at least some of these were released.... Photo discovered by SonicBoy19 |

Here is a nice pair of microfleece pajama pants. They're in mens' sizes so they'll fit anyone. They have an elastic & draw-string waist. The pants are blue, with a simple & large all-over pattern of forward-facing classic Sonic heads. They're packaged in a simple card band that shows the pattern & the size. These were found in a Canadian Walmart, but will they be a Canada exclusive, or will they show up elsewhere? This is a winter 2012 release. Photo & owned by Kitsune Li | ||||||||||||||||

| Here is a selection of 3 long sleeve tees from The Children's Place clothing store in Canada. They're pretty diverse, but look at that tag! It should be familiar if you've gotten some recent tees in the USA too. It's the dark blue rectangle with logo & Sonic/Tails at the bottom that just says "Sega" on it. The first shirt uses faux-wear/weatering for some reason...even though the design & font style are modern. It shares the design with a hoodie on USA Winter Wear 4. The 2nd shirt is somewhat unique in that it refers to Sonic as "The Blue Blur" in blocky letters at the bottom. That's usually regarded as more of a 'classic type phrase'. The 3rd shirt with Shadow, Knuckles Blaze & Sonic uses a design from a short sleeve white USA tee. This still has the rainbow of colored pixels for the background, but it's harder to see on the red fabric. These are winter 2012/2013 releases. You may be able to buy one or more of these online with the Children's Place website link. Photos & owned by Kitsune Li | |||||||||||||||||

This shirt is from a Canada Walmart, does that mean it'll appear in the USA too? Walmarts seem to share their items. This tee features 'falling/leaping back' modern Sonic, with a nice fade on the vertical logo. He's got red screen-tone dots to add a sort of texture to the background.

| Here are 3 different shirts found in Canada Wal Marts. You'll easily recognize the first one with rectangle character close-up portraits as a variant of the USA version of this same design. The difference here is, that the tee is navy blue. The 2nd is a long sleeve shirt & cap combo item. The shirt has a nice new design, with Sonic in front of a big red star-bumper like shape. The cap (interestingly enough) has the SonicTeam Sonic face all-blue logo embroidered on. There are rows of little yellow & red stars beside it. The third shirt has backward leap/tumbling Sonic in front of a ring of stars that has the "SA" type swirl in the middle. Each ones is a boys/teens size.
