Well, it's not "a good thing", but Samsung Canada does not have the people to provide any needed support. 

So, if some people have issues with the Betas, they would be on their own.. That and the fact that only 7 countries worldwide participate in the Betas, and it's been like that for years. 

Samsung gets the information they want from those 7 countries. 

You can, if you know what you're doing, manually Flash the CORRECT US Betas on your Canadian device, as the hardware is identical. You would need to change the CSC to the the Canadian CSC, in order to get your Carrier's specific services, ie: WiFi Calling etc.

I get what you're saying, but there's around 185 countries on the planet, and only 7 are part of Samsung's Beta program. There's maybe 177 other countries who feel the same.. Why would Canada be more deserving than them.. And again, since the US & Canadian hardware is identical, and the US has roughly 10 times the population.. Samsung gets what they want from the US Betas..

The problem is not with the Betas themselves, the problem is that Samsung doesn't bother with actual support in Canada, whether it is for Betas, or just general support.
