When I redirect to a page, depending on the country it does not work in https

I have the following code, where according to the country I will redirect to a certain page. This code works correctly for me in http but if I load the html page usinghttps it does not do anything.

<html>
 <head>
        <script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js" integrity="sha256-FgpCb/KJQlLNfOu91ta32o/NMZxltwRo8QtmkMRdAu8=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
        <script>
              jQuery.ajax( {
              url: '//api.ipstack.com/181.64.157.39?access_key=xxxx',
              type: 'POST',
              dataType: 'jsonp',
              success: function(location) {
                // If the visitor is browsing from Canada.
                if (location.country_code === 'CA') {
                  // Redirect him to the Canadian store.
                  //window.top.location.href = 'http://google.com.pe';
                  document.location.href = 'http://google.ca';
                }
              }
            } );
        </script>

 </head>
 <body>
<h2>Hello</h2>


 </body>
</html>

Why does this happen, how do I make it work in both?

Your code is not working in HTTPS because your ipstack Plan API not support HTTPS. So if you using HTTPS to request, you will return error :

{"success":false,"error":{"code":105,"type":"https_access_restricted","info":"Access Restricted - Your current Subscription Plan does not support HTTPS Encryption."}}

So you should edit your AJAX request to force using HTTP instead :

<script>
      jQuery.ajax( {
      url: 'http://api.ipstack.com/181.64.157.39?access_key=xxxx',
      type: 'POST',
      dataType: 'jsonp',
      success: function(location) {
        // If the visitor is browsing from Canada.
        if (location.country_code === 'CA') {
          // Redirect him to the Canadian store.
          //window.top.location.href = 'http://google.com.pe';
          document.location.href = 'http://google.ca';
        }
      }
    } );
</script>
