    Indeed you can find it at any Chapters/Indigo/Coles. You can choose to order it online and the usual free delivery and 30% off, you can order it online and have it shipped to a local outlet, or you can use their site to search for its availability in a local store.

    I saw a copy in Indigo the other day. Also any good computer book store will have it.

    Which Indigo was that, Bill?

    There have been 'sightings' in Canadian book stores since April, but they rarely stay on the shelves long. Which is a good thing I guess, but really annoying in another sense - since I can't say (well I used to, but not any more), "Go to your local bookstore and browse a copy on the shelf..."

    Following L Foster's advice, I see that the World's Biggest Bookstore in Toronto has four copies.

    I was in the Indigo at Signal Hill in Calgary (Indigo, Coles and Chapters are all owned by the same parent company so any should have it). Don't know if that means anything to you.

    I found it interesting that it was there though. I had been web searching for it and only found it in a specialty store (Nexus) rather than the typical book stores. Maybe it's catching on and they're ordering them now or something.

    Hello,

    I got it here in PEI canada. Its a good book. Actually, I got it at the local book store. I preordered it, just droped by with the isbn number and they were happy to bring it in for me.

    I saw it this weekend at McNally Robinson in Winnipeg, Manitoba... I just ordered it online at chapters.indigo.ca though... way cheaper.
