Finally after lots of searching i found a supplier of Baltic Birch plywood. Good stuff too not made in China, Russian. Da Comrade.
I dont know how many of you can take advantage of this place but the prices were excellent and they stock loads of other flatsheet goods.

In the past i have been well extorted by the big orange borg. But alas no more am i contributing to the CEO's retirement fund.
Example Home Depot 2X4 sheet BB 17.5mm (thats the closest they have to 3/4) = $28.50 per sheet. Thats 8sq ft for $3.56 per sheet before our HST tax.
Go to this place and i picked up 5x5 sheets which DH dont even sell
18mm for $1.352 per sq ft. or $33.80 per sheet.
Then got 12mm and 15mm for .945/sq ft and 1.209 per sq ft respectively.
Also for the first time found a ply which is select sanded one side spruce 4x8 1.088 per sqft.
So i am a happy smiling camper. This place is in Bolton Ontario about 45 minutes from me but it was worth the drive for me.
Not sure how many here can take advantage of this or if its good pricing by comparison to what you pay in the USA.
