Here in Manitoba, we were getting our run flats from a source in Saskatchewan who had bought scrap tires from the British in Suffield. There might be a few of these left. I would be very surprised if any Canadian issue ferret tires remained anywhere; many of the Canadian ferets I have seen had the tires worn to the point of qualifying as California winter tread; they were near bald.
There was also a place in Edmonton (I believe it was dollar tire) which had a decent quantity of the ferret run flats, 5 tires for $400 cdn.
I prefer the ferret tires for their run flat capability and of course, their correct appearance. If you want some decent 9X16 NDCC tires, there is a source in Manitoba for these at a decent price as well, albeit used. PM me and I can give you the name and number for the sources. Dirk D likely has or can get these numbers as well.
There is also a set of good ferret tires available out of Saskatchewan but they are a bit pricey ($4500 cdn), they also come with a C8A HUP.

Wow, some good leads, but I cannot PM or e-mail you as you do not have those features turned on.
A HUP would be nice....
