Is it possible to add which country is being searched from to the URL?

Similar to passing the keyword on to the URL using KW={keyword), is there a way to show which country the search came from? I'm interested in seeing what percent of the searches are coming from 2 specific countries which would help me determine whether their traffic is worthwhile pursuing.

Any help on this would be appreciated.

No, there is no such capability. But, if you track the refering URL in your logs - you can extract as much from each click's domain origin.

You could also set up another campaign and target only one of the countries you want to test. I am assuming CA and UK.

One campaign for each of those, same adgroup setup as your existing campaign within there, and then add a new param to the ads &country=UK.

Adwords editor might help speed this process up.
