Canada too.
I don't think it's intended to really boost the sales all that much, considering you have to show student verification if you're purchasing it on the website. If I'm not mistaken, it's similar to their education discount. I have to punch in a valid school email address as a teacher in order to get the discounts on whatever I buy. They may be more lax in the retail stores, but I don't think this is for anyone and everyone looking to grab one. It's also similar to how Apple used to sell macbooks near back to school season with a free iPod Touch for students (haven't bought an Apple product in awhile though, not sure if they still do this).
