Or, there is "Big flats rivet company" on the net, based in New York, and they ship to Canada.

If you know someone in Calgary there is a surplus store there that sells a very suitable rivet for $5 for each box of 20 or 25. I have done a few carriers using their rivets.

If you can wait a bit there is a sea container coming from the UK later this year.

A box of rivets could easily go inside.

That would get you as far as Toronto

I am in the Calgary area and would be happy to help out with getting rivets from the source Rob mentions.
