How do I switch between viewing ads in Canada or the U.S. when doing a google search? I'm in Canada and see all Canadian ads. If I want to help a U.S. customer I obviously need to see the U.S. ads.

Google came back with 'add geo-ca' to the end which is great except I'm already seeing the Canadian ads :). I need to be able to see the U.S. geo-us or geo=usa didn't seem to do much.

TIA

If I remember well products such as anonymizer let you choose "from where" you wanted to surf. Could not find the location option now though.

We've also used www2 or one of the other US servers like SJ to see our US ads from here.

Thanks Tropical. www2.google.com seems to do the trick!

If you get the google toolbar to translate a page into English, it defaults to US ads.
