Couldn't say specifically for CA, but Switchmod.net, Novelkeys, 1up, etc. are US based places that sell a good selection of lubes. Also you can get most Krytox formulas on Amazon, but it is rather hard to find anyone selling smaller amounts on there & Krytox is crazy expensive in larger quantities.

I also live in Canada, and I got my lubes from Novelkeys (for Christolube MCG 111) and Apexkeyboards (for Krytox 205g0). Novelkeys was the only place I could find that would sell 111 in small quantities, and Apexkeyboards was the cheapest vendor I could find for 205g0, once I factored in shipping. If they would allow for local pickups it would be at least 2x cheaper than if I got it from switchmod, at least for me.

Thank you all.
