I've only ever bought a single dvd from a Canadian store (The Fantasia Anthology) and I noticed that it is only for sale and rental in Canada. (I always assumed that Canada shared DVD's with the U.S)

Are there ever any differences between Canadian and American DVD releases, in terms of extras/packaging/audio-visual mastering? Or are they identical except for the little canadian flag on the back?

I ordered Monsters Inc from DVD Box Office and am unsure whether I'll be getting the R1 version with all the extras stated in the press release..

thanks
