Any plans for accommodating Canadian customers in regards to the sectional changes to the VFR charts (airspace overlays or similar)?

Disappointing the FAA is doing this...they also got called on trying to NOT indicate private aerodromes on the charts, but with a huge cry of protest, they were put BACK with an explaination that it was all just a big misunderstanding...

The staff of the FAA keeps growing - now up to over 55,000 including all federal and contract employees, so the services should not keep shrinking. Mike N714AJ

Even if iFly could provide the same airspace overlay information for Canadian airspace that they provide for the US airspace that would be a step up - navigationally speaking, one of my biggest concerns when flying is making sure I'm staying out of airspace I'm not supposed to be in at that time. Right now, if I use iFly GPS in Canada I'm essentially flying blind airspace-wise (which kind of sucks because I think I've bought about two-years worth of iFly subscriptions in advance and I fly in Nova Scotia, Canada!)

canada charges a lot for that data and it is not available yet. we're looking for other options.

Sounds good - I know that the Xample folks (makers of Air Navigation Pro) provide the overlays for free in their app, so they may have found a source other than NAV Canada.
