I don't know where in Canada but you can order them online. At the Colorado English Conclave yesterday this business has them and they have a website to order from. They are Detailers Paradise - Premium Car Care Products. If you use your MasterCard or VISA the exchange rate will be converted for you. I order stuff from England all the time and it is taken care for me.

Taboo,

I get my MF towels here and have only high praise for both the quality of the towels and for the service:

http://www.pakshak.com/

Free shipping to the US and Canada. And it didn't take but a few days to receive my order. I did some scratch tests with both 100% cotton towels and these microfiber, and the microfiber never scratched even under the most extreme pressure, while the 100% USA cotton towels did leave very slight micro-marring.

I'm a very satisfied customer! If you check out the testimonials section of the site, you'll see another MINI owner that likes the towels, as well.

Good luck,
JS

I bought a nice package of 12 microfibre towels at Sam's Club - half white, half blue. Very high quality, and at less than a buck apiece, practically disposable
