Naw, that's chewing tobacco....snus comes in little paper pouches. It's fermented or pasteurized or something. I know they sold it in the Ottawa area, but that's it.

Isn't that Snus sold in the chewing tobacco section of every gas station?

I remember back in high school I was given or got my hands on a pack of that stuff when they were introducing it to the Canadian market. I think it was Skoal or something.. I think its still sold..

The packs are what I am talking about. Paper packs about the size of a chicklette, they are white and you put them in your mouth.

They came in the same round plastic pack as the chewing tobacco. So maybe they are in all or most stores, they are just confused as chewing tobacco? I'd ask the guy in the store to take a look.

Ah, gotcha. Those are regular chewing tobacco in pouches, not the same as snus though. I've had those too....not bad, but the snus is supposedly safer because it's processed differently. And you don't have to spit, bonus!

I have doubts if you'll be able to find Swedish snus where you are (thought not 100% sure of that). It's very likely that the only place you'll be able to get it is through one of the international sellers. I would suggest northerner. Getsnus is a US distributor and I don't know if they sell to Canada.

I have heard there may be problems with taxes when shipping to Canada but I'm not up to speed on those issues.

I would really suggest you take a look at the snuson forum. You'll get much better answers to the above question over there. A number of Canadians getting snus that could help you out.
