I'm Canadian and the article about Doug & FTS in our local newspaper did catch my eye.  I didn't bother entering the contest to get the free book because I wanted to read it and get started right away.  Maybe they are all waiting for the end of summer to get started.  Maybe they did start but just didn't register for the forum.  I'm just glad that I got started right away.

Ladyluck I was having a hard time finding things too, until I heard about ordering online with The Low Carb Grocery in Markham, ON http://www.thelowcarbgrocery.com/ .  They are great to work with and usually have your order to you the next day.  Shipping is $7.99 or free if you spend over $100.  The other things like golden flax meal, almond meal, xylitol, shiritaki noodles, black soy beans and a few other things I find at my local health food store.  Bulk Barn also has things like soy flour, Black Diamond S.F. Almond Milk (which is also at the regular grocery stores with the Carnation milk), unsalted nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans).  It was like a scavenger hunt in the beginning but I'm finding things ok right now, although I still haven't found a really low carb red pasta sauce.  I hope this helps.
