15 Canadian Comic Book Creators You Should Know @cbcbooks https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.5129126 . . . . #arts #comics #graphicnovels #cbc #cbcbooks #canada #britishcolumbia #vancouver #mountpleasant https://www.instagram.com/p/BxsfBH0BEis/?igshid=1u32ukdlpt43q
Canada Reads German in UK
Since 2002 the CBC has aired a debate in which a diverse panel champions Canadian books. It is a fine show that lets you peek at how books get judged and by what criteria. For a writer who hopes to enter the fray, Canada Reads is a rare look behind the curtain [1].
This year felt different to me. Not every shortlisted title and not even the winner seemed easy to find outside Canada, and some editions were hard to find at all. Rights and storefronts kept saying “not available here.”
A little context. In Canada most major prizes and contests consider books already published by established presses. Debut fiction from an unpublished author usually reaches prizes only after a publisher gets involved. So discovery rides on publishing, and publishing rides on rights.
Take Gil Adamson’s Ridgerunner. It won the Writers’ Trust Fiction Prize and drew other shortlist honours. First published in May 2020, it is a North American release from House of Anansi, now also in paperback. UK buyers can find imports, and sometimes a UK retailer will list stock, but e-book availability and pricing vary by territory [2][3][4]. Multiply that by a shortlist and you can see how access gets patchy.
The winner that year was Joshua Whitehead’s Jonny Appleseed. The debates ran in March 2021 and the book took the crown. It is a contemporary Indigenous novel written in English, and you would think that would mean instant global reach. In practice, availability still depends on who holds rights in each market and what they choose to license where [5][6][7].
Why the block. Two words: territorial rights. Publishers license formats and territories. Retailers then enforce those licences with geo-blocking. If a UK store shows “not available in your region,” it is usually because the publisher has not licensed UK digital rights or has delayed them. The policy can be irritating for readers, but it remains standard practice in the trade [7][8][9].
So how do you read the Canada Reads list from the UK. Try your library first. Interlibrary loan and special orders still work. Check the Canadian publisher’s site, which may ship worldwide. If you must buy, expect overseas shipping for some titles, and watch for later paperback or UK editions. Patience often pays off.
I will still cheer for Canada Reads. I would just love a world where a book that wins on a Thursday can be bought, legally and easily, on a Friday wherever readers live.
