PS Ontario is a pretty big place. It would help to put your town in the avatar.
I've heard Val from the Gentleman's Den does good work. There are also a lot of members who can put a wicked edge on a blade that aren't considered professionals. Many of their edges on par with the "professionals".
Good luck.
There is another option http://straightrazorpalace.com/get-t...et-2016-a.html and learn to hone your own razors

The classic edge is another that is often used by members with good reviews
Phil at classic edge does great things.
For unknown reasons I thought you were in Vancouver. I am willing to bet that there are several members in Ontario that could fix you up if need be. Failing that there are also a few in the west that could also get your edge undoubtedly shave ready. I have used Phil at Classic Edge and his blades are nice to shave with. We have several very active member in that province, it is just a matter of getting in touch with them. You could PM MikeB52 or HarryWally they are there and will certainly be in the loop. The greater TO meet is a good plan if you can make it.
As all above have relied, Phil at classic edge, Val in TO, and a few members themselves having learned from the above are pretty adept honemeisters. The Aug 20 GTG in Orangeville is always a great way to get some hands on experience as well, as Colin mentioned.
Good luck and safe shaves.
