Q: Apple ID in Canada but want to buy US apps. Can i create another ID?

I tried to create another US Apple ID and posted my YOB as 1955 and i was denied because it said i didnt meet the minimum age requirements. How OLD do you have to be?? All i wanted to do was download an app but the app isnt offered in the Canadian store. Can i create another Apple ID for purchases from the store where the app is offered??

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

You need to be in the US with a US billing address on your account to be able to buy from the US store. You can try requesting that the app be added to the Canadian store, but ultimately it's the app's developer that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
