Do you mean a Canadian television company that shows anime or one that licenses and sells DVDs?

North America licenses are for Region 1 dvd players. Most companies license for canada, and america. Though most stores don't want to supply anime.
It's hard to import into canada, without customs on you.

No, there aren't. To my knowledge all of the major companies operate out of the US, although some of them use dubbing studios in Canada.

No, it's because the American companies don't know how to do
Canadian distribution properly.

I share your pain...
And unfortunately, this problem is even worse in Quebec... considering that few animes are dubbed (or even subbed) in french... if, by chance, you live near a "china town", you might be in luck!
Or you could just settle for the few animes shown on YTV... (theres a small line-up of anime on fridays... not the best, but it's better than nothing...)
