AppleCare on a MacBook from a third party retailer?
I'm in Canada and TheSource currently has some MacBooks on sale, and if I get one would it be possible to still get that Applecare+ annual plan from apple?

The Source is an Apple Authorized Reseller according to Find Locations - Apple
You should be able to buy AppleCare directly from them when you purchase a Mac. But be careful to insure that it is AppleCare as some resellers also sell their own insurance products.
You can also buy AppleCare from Apple. See the following from AppleCare Products - Mac - Apple (CA)
How to buy
- Purchase AppleCare+ with your new Mac.
- Or buy it within 60 days of your Mac purchase:
- On your device (go to > About This Mac > Support)
- Online (requires you to verify your serial number)
- At an Apple Store (inspection of Mac and proof of purchase are required)
- By calling (800) 263-3394
