According to a report on Business Insider today, Vancouver's nomorerack.com is setting up shop in New York City. No word on whether their 30 employees will be going with them.

Nomorerack's goal is to become the TJ Maxx of the web by cutting out all the middle men & overhead in between a household product and the consumer. They offer multiple items covering home, electronics, women, men and kids categories on deep discounts every day.

Nomorerack is currently selling 8,000 items a day, 5 items a minute, and already has 4.5 million subscribers and projects doing $100 million in revenue in the coming year.

So why are they moving to NYC? Three reasons according to co-founder Melina Ash:

We've all heard of one-stop shops. But how about a one-app shop? (Or would it be a one-app app? Or a one-shop app?)

Toronto's Shopmox is a self-described "Flipboard for shopping." Flipboard, if you don't know, is a highly regarded curator of news, that delivers a fluid, magazine-like stream of content pulled from a variety of relevant sources (similar to Vancouver's Zite). Shopmox, instead of creating a personalized magazine, concocts a daily "boutique," a digital showcase of apparel that suits your individual tastes.

Toronto's TeamBuy and SellOffVacations have come together in a joint partnership to provide exclusive vacation packages available to TeamBuy subscribers. Accessible through TeamBuy's travel vertical, the custom trips will offer "striking discounts and unique travel experiences to Europe, Mexico, Caribbean and the United States."

On the top floor of the Mercer building on 104th Street and Stony Plain Road is the newly outfitted home of Startup Edmonton, an organization that hopes to turbocharge the city's startup ecosystem. Within the next five years, CEO Ken Bautista hopes to invest in up to 500 entrepreneurs.

Startup Edmonton isn't a new idea: it's your typical accelerator, providing startups with office space, mentorship, and money. But it's a new idea to Edmonton, a city that has entrepreneurial blood flowing through but that hasn't yet realized its potential as a tech hub in Canada.

The CBC has reported that cybercrime in Canada is skyrocketing. Canada now ranks second worldwide for hosted phishing sites, according to a five-month study completed by Websense this year.

The number of malicious websites hosted in Canada has also risen by 239%. However, it is a worldwide trend that cybercrime is increasing. Still, Canada remains the sixth worst country overall year-over-year in cybercrime. Contrast that to 2010 where Canada ranked 12th overall.

The question of which Canadian city is most deserving of the title of Silicon Valley North has been hotly debated for many years. 

Toronto is Canada's most active ecosystem, according to the Startup Compass, but we all know activity isn't everything.

And if activity isn't everything, should we not look beyond the borders of Canada's major cities like Vancouver and Montreal… perhaps far beyond?

Montreal-based startup FixMeStick has launched what it is calling the first-ever consumer-ready USB device for removing viruses from infected PCs. The Canadian technology company is enabling "everyday users to do what the pros do" by detecting, destroying, and preventing virus infection with a USB device.
