Have they finally decided to stop making it... ? Oh you just want the cheap
stuff.

Considering it's getting harder and harder to find and order in Canada and
they make retailers jump through more hoops to buy it, I'd guess they are
really cutting back on production - or making it so hard to buy that they
can justify finally giving it the chop "hey - no one was ordering it any
more".

E.G. My usual supplier (who are basically wholesalers supplying retailers
and who still turn over hundreds of thousands of dollars in film sales) have
basically been "discouraged" by Kodak from ordering tri-x in sheet sizes
