Going into wet tintype

After an absolutely disastrous experience with Rockland's pseudo tintype
process at the Threasherman's Reunion (my best chance to make some money
in 2005), two bad batches of developer in a row, and NO ability to
produce tintypes for sale, I have decided to move to a wet plate
process.
 
I have sent away for John Coffer's "The Doers Guide" and might spring
for the Osterman's book to. I watch the Alternative Photography forum
(and a few others). Living in Manitoba, there wont be any "workshops"
etc. within my budget range, so I'm going to have to work this out thru
books and online.
 
Question #1 - Any other information sources I should check out?
 
Question #2 - Other than JD PhotoChem, are there any other chemical
suppliers in Canada?
 
Thanks gang.
