Hey there, there was a bug that was flagging users incorrectly with location detection algorithm which uses anonymized IPs, this has been addressed 4 days a go, as can be seen here.
Unfortunately only way to confirm users origin is via official documents, privacy concern is understandable but rest assured this information is handled with utmost respect to user privacy and with compliance of Canadian law, not to used for anything else other than confirming users identity to resolve these issues.

Hope that helps clear up your issue on this.
