I use that same scale and really love it. Don't waste your cash on the AC adapter, the thing never seems to go through batteries at all. I'd suggest you contact that supplier and ask if they ship to Canada or if not, if they can suggest a Canadian supplier for this product.
We weigh everything from the smallest rodent to our largest snakes on it. The bowl it comes with is a bit small for some of our biggest female BP's but an old big plastic salad bowl easily does the trick (gotta love that tare feature and the hold feature).
