    Pro6, Z1 and a shop in Quebec used to do it. Pro6 and Z1 don't anymore, and the shop in Quebec is no longer.

    I've read good things about this guy, but the hassle of shipping from then to Canada might make it more expensive than just getting a good used rim.

    Try Carcones in Aurora

    I would look for a replacement wheel.
