Answer 1

Googled it and aparently yes there are in Canada but it doesn't specify if they are in eastern canada

http://www.angelfire.com/bug/bugprojectn...

and on the same page it says there are also earwigs that are in eastern canada

European Earwig

Forficula auricularia

This insect lives in Eastern Canada, southern New England and Pacific Northwest.  It eats Vegetables, orchard fruits, garden flowers, garbage, as well as mites, insect, larvae and pupae.  This insect co-exists with others in society peacefully. The body is reddish brown.  Its underside is yellowish brown.  Antennae, legs, and elytra are yellow

Anyway, I hope you do make it I'd love to see any part of canada!

Answer 2

Fear? I've been there. Speaking from my own experience, I found that counselling is important and can help you get beyond this -- permanently.

  

Answer 3

Eastern Canada doesn't have Cockroaches. Earwigs yes, bloody Elm span worm yes but no Cockroaches.  So unless you're planning on staying in a basement during the fall or standing under a tree in mid July you will be safe from both these fellas
