Hey Rob,
That's just a silly NS rumor.
As long as you signed up for a Ski Time subscription before last week, when the site still said that copies will only be distributed in North America, you will receive your copy.
I put up a little blerb about it this morning on skitimemag.com:
The premiere issue of Ski Time started shipping out last week to residents of North America. Despite some confusion, Canadians who signed up for the magazine will still be getting this year's issues.
Word.
Matt
