You're likely thinking of Proraso (readily available at Shoppers Drug Mart), as I've never seen it sold here. AFAIK it's online only.

Sorry - not sold in Canada. I buy mine from a couple of different English on-line drug stores. I can't recall the name right now... But they are easy to find.

I get mine from Connaught in the UK, 2 sticks for under $7 delivered and only 6 days from the UK to my door.
The price has recently doubled in the UK for Palmolive sticks from £0.48 ($0.74) to £1 in some stores. Traditional wet shaving is definitely making a comeback
I walked into my local Asda and bought two sticks for 78 pence each I think, they're really cheap anyways. Great soaps
Connaught shavings probably the best bet ordering from the US, or you could try arko, also a great soap, bit more expensive and I prefer it to the palmolive stick

In the US, Arko is generally less expensive than the Palmolive. Arko averages for about $2 while the Palmolive is usually around $3-$4.
I really like the Palmolive sticks. I've been using different soaps with a safety razor but when I got my Genco Old Dutch straight razor back from being sharpened I went straight to the Palmolive for the first few straight razor shaves. Seems like rubbing the soap into my beard creates a slick coating that I don't always get from more expensive soaps I mix in a shave mug.
I was in our local supermarket the other day and naturally had a quick look at the shave section just in case they had anything other than the canned foam stuff. Low and behold they had 50g Palmolive shave sticks.
I believe it was $1.80 AUD. Funny enough I have never tried it myself.
I might have to try one, too. I've only used an Arko stick, and I'm not really all that enamoured with the smell of Arko, though it lathers OK...
shave sticks are awesome. especially this one! Palmolive is a great soap :)
