Ok. That’s too bad. Their website says “Moved to merivale”, but sounds like that was the early sign of impending problem. Sad - especially since, apparently, many more people have been taking up hobbies during the pandemic. Maybe the supply chain shortages we’ve heard about were part of the problem.

It was my understanding that Focus moved (Merivale?) not closed. May be wrong - haven’t been out recently.

In Ottawa there is focus scientific.
Online there are a bunch of options, but I'm currently working with Ontario telescope.

Hi, I’m new to the group and in the Ottawa valley. Im wondering if anyone has suggestions for good places to purchase a telescope or if anyone were selling a used one. I think I’d like to get a dobsodian telescope so my little ones have a great experience looking at the night sky.
Thank you, cheers!
