The Community Minifigure Collection is now available in both the US and Canada on LEGO Shop at Home. No signs of the Fairy Tale and Historic Collection, but I wouldn't see any reason why it won't eventually appear.
The Community Collection retails for $49.99 USD and $57.50 CAD. You can find them both at the US and Canadian Shop at Home sites. The sets were a little hard to find, just type 'community' in the search bar on the main page.
