I believe the Canadian equivalent of the paper Tom's site identified has
the SKU of #33133-CA. The bar code is the same as the US version: 7
18103 02238 5. It's the "Picture Paper" rather than the premium photo
paper. I've had excellent results with it and it's cheaper than the
premium if I remember correctly.
