I get this all the times on my Android mobile when here in Brazil.
Not sure what the big is, but we all know how IT is at AC

hSurely one can specify a country that's not where one is calling from? At least cleaning up cookies, and perhaps disabling localization features? We have been on the road, to Holland, Belgium, France and eventually Australia, and we always were able to select the Canadian version. For better or worse. OTOH, with a bunch of trackers and (commercial/advertising) spyware disabled, maybe some crap called gigya or sentry.io ("Reason: CORS request did not succeed"), I now find myself unable to log in to both altitude and aeroplan. Interestingly, aircanada.com still works, though.

Since incognito works yes it might be related to cookies or other.
