After google.ca shutdown, Gemini keeps answering Canadians with US regulations

A Canadian user reports that after Google redirected google.ca to google.com, Gemini answers questions about Canadian law with American regulations — citing the FCC for broadcasting rules, though Canada's regulator is ISED. The user says instructions to never give US answers failed for a month, highlighting how poorly models localize regulatory context after region-level product changes.
