    I've seen Irn-Bru and Tizer in and around Burlington. Just about any British shop, fish 'n' chip place or Scottish bakery around here seems to have it. What I miss is the Cornish Pasties and pork pies form Marks & Sparks (Spenser) after hey closed up shop(s) here in Canada.

    The reason you can find it at all those places in Ontario, is because the Irn-Bru sold here is bottled in Markham.

    the back of the bottle says:
    Bottled for
    TFB & Associates Limited
    Markham, Ontario
    L3R 0E7

    I miss M&S too

    I found this thread and website when I googled Irn Bru (I'm having Irn Bru withdrawls). Several years ago, I was thrilled to find Irn Bru in our local supermarket (Super-Valu) and then at other Canadian Superstores around BC and Alberta. All of a sudden a few months ago, it's not on their shelves any more and I can't find anybody to tell me why. Can't find it anywhere now except in Scottish import shops in Edmonton or Calgary at double the price it was in the supermarkets. Unfortunatley, there are no Scottish import shops here in Red Deer. They only had bottles, no cans but I will take Irn Bru any way I can get it.
