Google assistant not available in Canada... Really?

Great news. So now we can move to the correct settings, re-test the stuff that wasn't working, and get it in the queue for a fix where appropriate.

I'll just wait a few more days into July and buy the Google home hub max and have so many more features like hand gestures etc Even the old Google max is like half the price of sonos Play 5 Sure glad I was able to off load my play ones. As for home theater being over 2000. I am moving on to way better sound bars that include eARC and atmos, not to mention other sound formats for cheaper.

Sorry sonos, I now see why your going the Ikea route.

Starting today, Google Assistant availability on Sonos is expanding to Australia, Canada, Germany, France, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. You can find more details on our community announcement here.

Great!

Next question: are there any fixes yet for the issues identified in the initial U.S. release? Is there any place we could check occasionally to see what changes might have been made?

There aren't any specific issues I can think of from the US release that were carried over, or resolved for that matter. The day of there was a bit of an outage, but that was fixed quickly. Though there are certainly some features that have been requested, and feel free to add more to the list as well. We usually make a community post here when there are several things to add, but updates for features often come as cloud updates, so they might not be linked with a software update.
