In response to the Canadian App Store censoring the name of Cornhole All-Stars, we packed up my ‘89 Buick and headed north to the border.  Armed with megaphones,  bandannas, and a couple real world cornhole sets, JUFTi was determined to free the name of our app from the shackles of the Canadian government.

Apparently, having a few cornhole boards in the car can cause a border guard to ask you more than a few questions, giving us some funny audio and jokes for the rest of the trip.   Having safely entered Ontario without a full body cavity search,  Toronto was destined to be our protesting playground for the next few days.  In laying the groundwork for our visit we helped organize a “Sea of Apps” discussion at  The Raq in Queen West, a sweet part of town if you haven’t been.

The Toronto dev scene came out with open arms to hear our story and share their pitfalls with what we feel is a broken App Store.  Lewis from touchmyapps and the Seto brothers from endloop were particularly enthusiastic and welcoming.  Rui, a local developer looking to crack the iphone market, had been following our censorship story in the WSJ online and was excited to share the news that just that afternoon when we arrived on Canadian soil the ban on the word Cornhole had been lifted!  (later confirmed Friday) Victory was ours!

Wish we could say how this went down, it will probably remain shrouded in mystery.  Hey, you can’t argue with results.  Nonetheless, there was celebrating to do and a city to explore.  Drunken revalry ensued as we sampled the bars on Queen St. and Ossington, winding down the night at the Lakeview with some poutine, the Seto brothers escorting us all the way.

JUFTi would like to thank the Canadian government and Apple for responding to our request.  Hopefully, this will be one of many examples of alacrity and open mindedness when it comes to sorting through this burgeoning marketplace.  It is safe to say that we are all just trying to figure it out; JUFTi, Apple, everybody.
