So I put myself in contact with Amazon.ca to enquire about when and how I would receive my Early Beta Access code since a buddy of mine just got hers from another vendor. I pre-ordered the Collectors Edition because it included everything it seemed from the listing, Early Beta Access as well. I was a bit shocked to get a response from the customer service last night telling me that I wont be getting an Early Beta Access code for my purchase even when it says so in the item description and has an image advertising it. Just wanted to make sure you other Canadian guardians were aware as well.

Collectors Edition on Amazon.ca as of last night - I have it pre-ordered

The response I got from the Amazon.ca customer service when I asked them about the Beta code

EDIT :

The Standard Edition listing still has Early Beta Access advertised even if it's not correct

EDIT 2 :

I talked to Customer Service at Amazon.ca again just now and they not only confirmed that they dont have Beta Codes but they also let me know that I wont receive my Collectors Edition until January since they oversold the product. FML

EDIT 3 :

DeeJ just replied down below with this information : "I've brought this to the attention of our partners at Activision who manage these relationships. Apparently, this is being rectified. We'll keep an eye on the issue and update this thread once we know more."

There is hope for us maple guardians. Stay tuned. <3

EDIT 4 :

DeeJ updated his post below : "I've heard back that the issue should have been rectified. Please contact the parties you were dealing with again and let me know if your experience has improved."

Again the truly REAL and humble maple guardians thank you.

FINAL EDIT :

This morning I received my beta code in the mail from Amazon.ca :) DeeJ's wrath... I mean, kind nudge from Bungie to Activision to Amazon has payed off for us in maple country. I've also seen happy replies to this post with the same news. /u/DeeJ , we thank you again. Now let's get on them mooses, raise them hockey sticks and get ready to deal with Gary!!!!

So is it true that Canadian Guardians get Hockey Sticks instead of swords?

No. None of this is true!

I've heard they are very polite. I'm under the impression it sounds more like "soarry..." though.

Hey. I pre-ordered from walmart.com the day it went live as it was appearing that the Collector's Editions were selling out rapidly. I called my local Wal-Mart and walmart.com (two separate companies, apparently) afterwards about the code and they both said that Wal-Mart (physical stores) weren't participating in pre-orders AT ALL and that walmart.com wasn't giving out early beta access codes.

Just an FYI. The people at the local Wal-Mart kept telling me it was a walmart.com issue and the walmart.com people had LITERALLY no idea what I was talking about or how to help me. Just thought it was weird that y'all had Wal-Mart on the pre-order page listed as an approved retailer offering beta access.

I was able to cancel my order with Wal-Mart and order through Best Buy (although I'll have to wait until 10 AM on launch day to pick up my order and play... grumble, grumble). Best Buy emailed me the code. So, all is right in the world but Wal-Mart caused me some serious anxiety for a few hours.

Anyway. Something that may need to be looked at, as well.

Doing it now.
