SEDAR - has stuff that is more stuff similar to what you see on full filing reporting companies.

These Canadian companies use a pink symbol for traders in the US. You often see a statement that a company trades on the pink exchange. Pink is not an exchange first of all. The symbol is really just a convenience as brokers like Ameritrade do not allow for trading online on foreign markets.

When you enter the pink symbol, the shares are routed to Canadian market makers and traded there. The shares are listed on the US brokerage account under the pink symbol with US dollar value for convenience only.
