An interesting caveat I've found for self-hosting is that getting server hardware in Canada is harder now that several companies, most notably NewEgg, have decided that any equipment that might have a business use case requires a business account and license, meanwhile Americans can still buy things like rackmount hardware no issues.
You can still get rackmount stuff on Amazon, but fuck Bezos. I'd like a better option. I've found some places like AVADirect that will ship to Canada, but not any Canadian businesses that sell that stuff to normal Canadians.

That would be an interesting list.
