Default Soda Lime - C02 Absorbant

Hey anyone know where I can get this in Canada. I still have quite a few bags that I bought and picked up from the US but I'd like to find a Canadian source before I run out. I constantly have really low PH in the winter without using a C02 Scrubber.

Two Little Fishies has a branded soda lime product.

Otherwise, ask at a local dive shop. They use soda lime for rebreathers.

Any LFS that carries TLF can order it. They probably have no idea what it is, and don't order it.

Yeh the TLF is way to expensive though.

I'll try a dive shop. I know I checked before and they didn't have any.

This is where I got it from in the US before $9 for a 3lb bag. http://www.shopmedvet.com/product/so...hesia-products

They just asked a he'll of alot of questions when I brought 15 bags of it over the boarder. Was looking to eliminate that hassle.
