Try a PM to "oenology".  She might have some still.

If that fails, you can try AquaBay. There may be a brick and mortar store in Ottawa, but if not, you can get it online.

Just out of curiousity. What's it used for?

[darkdep]

It's often used to disinfect plants (so you don't accidentally introduce snails) among other things.

[valiko]

It could be used for any type of disinfection.

- Could be a topical disinfectant of the small cuts.
- It is used in the gardening to spray some vegetables, flowers.
- Could be used to disinfect water, aquarium fish and aquarium plants

Basically, it can be used anywhere.

LOL here is one of the uses from the wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_permanganate
