It's only being tested in a pilot program right now but they're accepting applications for future opportunities.
As reported by Barry Schwartz, a recent Webmaster World discussion reported seeing a trusted site listing in an Adwords ad for a local business in Canada so you Cannucks may get an opportunity quicker than us US folks.
Local. That's good.
