Default Where can I find Barnes Triple Shock bullets?

Quite a few years ago, I bought a couple of boxes of, I believe Federal Cartridges, loaded with Barnes bullets. Where I got them, I have no idea.
Black Hills Bullets currently makes them but I doubt they ship to Canada and it appears that Federal no longer makes them.
Wholesale Sports, Cabelas and Bass Pro do not carry them.
Does anyone know of a retailer in southern Alberta who sells them?
And no, I do not reload. If I did, there would be no problem.
Thanks.
Roger

Barnes sells their own line of ammunition featuring their bullets. Prophet River is one dealer that carries them.
