I suspect that number is too large for a guy to do this alone.

No, it's really not. You can get lists of which IP ranges are assigned to which country (helps with blocking bots). Haveing a whitelist of only Canadian IPs is pretty trivial.

Grab the CSV and use it as a whitelist for your firewall. If you're on lemmy it's well within your wheelhouse. Even if it's not, grany could ask chatgpt to slop it together for you.
