Whenever I go to a website I am redirected to the Canadian version of a website. It recently became more of a problem but always had my location set in Canada. How do I fix this?

Thanks for the suggestion. I went to the website and my IP address is being reported as the United States. Any suggestions on how to change it so that I don't see Canada websites for the sites I visit?
