All first party retail releases like Magical Chase were sold in Canada.

Otherwise, I don't think anything else had any kind of Canadian version. This includes stuff like Working Designs games, Sidearms, Tricky Kick and Sinistron.

I'm guessing that any mail order items, like the System 3.0 card and Dynastic Hero also didn't have any kind of distinction when sold to Canadians. I don't remember there being any kind of French or bilingual documents included with the Super CD card bitd.

Weren't the Looms that tggodfrey got the "Canadian" version, basically meaning they came with a french manual or something in addition to the English manual?  I haven't opened mine so I cant say for certain.

Yeah, but the Monster Lairs and Looms were first party releases as they were published by NEC and TTI respectively. The Monster Lair I got from Terry did indeed come with a french manual in addition to the english one. Not sure about the Loom since I haven't opened mine yet.

I don't notice many differences here in our Turbo goodies here other then French manuals and the correct spelling of 'aboot'.

The Super System Card insert/manual is in both English and French, or at least everyone that I've seen is.

No, Loom did not come with an extra French manual.  I bought my copy of Loom from the same seller that Terry got his lots of ML and Loom from.  My ML did, but Loom did not.
