So im gonna be in Canada this week. Ill be in Quebec City for the next three days, then Montreal for 2 days, and then Ottawa until monday. Can anybody recommend any spots to dig in any of these places. Im not asking for your secret spots or anything, maybe just some spots with deep dollar bins?

Yeah, thanks man, I found a site that lists stores all around Canada. It seems like Montreal is gonna be my spot, this store Le Pick Up sounds awesome, I can't wait to hit it up. I'll post the link for any future forum members traveling the area.

So, I haven't received any suggestions, but I might as well share what I find for anybody coming this way after this. In Quebec City I found three legit looking record shops on Rue St-Jean. One was called Platine Le Disquaire Inc‎ (you can find it on google maps). I don't know the names of the other two, but they are all within one or two blocks of each other. Unfortunately I am here on some kind of Quebec holiday and basically everything is closed. Hopefully I will have time to go back and dig before I head to Montreal tomorrow.

If sharing this information is blowing up the spots of any Canadian diggers...then they should learn not to be so greedy haha.
