Country options
I receive emails from you offering me access to birth and death records which is very handy til I see they are all records from the U.S.A. I'm in Canada and have no relatives in the U.S. so is it possible to give me access to Canadian birth and death records.
Thank you
Robert MacDonald

Your post references birth and death records, but your screenshot is from a newspaper obituary collection. There are many Canadian birth and death records available on FamilySearch.

@robertianmacdonald, as Áine says, FamilySearch has material for a lot more than just the U.S. My relatives were all in the Kingdom of Hungary, and almost all of the sources for them are on FS.
That said, if you do not wish to receive such emails, you can opt out of them. Click the tree at the top left to go to the main site, and log in if necessary. Then click your name at the top right, choose Settings, and go to Notifications. In the "Email Messages from FamilySearch" section, turn off the top two sliders.

Also - those emails are mostly generic and not targeted to you or your area of research. The few emails that get through the filter for me usually are all excited to tell me about something that has been found for my ancestor - that I searched for, found, and attached a few years ago.
