I’m looking for a Canadian source for Hart hammers. I can’t seem to find a retailer who carries them any more. They all claim they can’t get orders filled. I won’t use any other hammer, so if I can’t find one I’ll have to find a new profession!

Maybe it is time for you to try buying over the internet. Really, it's not that bad.
I,ll trade you a truckload of Harts for a truckload of Toilets that work!
Actually Hart can't sell in The great white north cause they dont make a metric hammer!

Do not try this at home!

"Actually Hart can't sell in The great white north cause they dont make a metric hammer!"
The real reason is that Hart can't get people to swear in French when they hit their thumbs.No problems, only opportunities.
If you do, just don"t forget "calver". All the rest like( lets see if the censor can catch french) Austie, christie, tabarnack, Merde, etc.. are good too.
You forgot 'maudite' and 'caulisse' (how it sounds, not how it's spelled)....as in "astie caulisse maudite tabernack, I whacked my thumb wit my 'ammer. Merde, astie." Say this loud.
Translates roughly to 'the Host, the chalice, goddam tabernacle...' etc. Sounds raunchier in French, and you just keep rearranging the words on subsequent goes ('Caulisse...astie tabernack. Maudite, I whacked my 'tumb avec mon hammer. Maudit christe, astie."). Flexible language, French.cabinetmaker/college instructor. Cape Breton, N.S
All I want to know is why all of us are either part of one family or the other. Some of us are part of the Austie family and part are of the Caulisse clan.
Case in point, two guys meet after a prolonged sepparation, conversation would start like this.
#1 "Hey, 'ows hit going Austie"
#2 "Not bad, Caulisse"
So #1 would be Mr. Caulisse and #2 would be Mr. Austie.
It's da worsest ting I never saw!
