Canadians can short through $5.
Don't ask me why Canadians are more privileged than Americans when trading on American issues because I don't know why. More correctly, I believe anyone with a broker in Canada can short under $5 (there is no lower bound as far as I know). So, even if short interest increases, that doesn't necessarily mean the floorless guys are abusing the system.
