I have been doing some research on the side and you can buy Gen 3 night vision monocle's with specifications that come close to or equal a PVS-14's (at least based on my layman's understanding of the technical specs) in Canada. Here is a link to the monocle's that Alpha Optics sells, this vendor is located in Burlington outside of the Toronto area.

I spoke to a Sales Rep from AO and basically they have you sign paperwork that transfers ownership of the Gen 3 NVG that you buy. After that you are expected to adhere to the laws regarding the export of such devices. Depending on the model chosen they can build the monocle in 5 business days to meet your specifications.

One last point ... if you want PVS-14 specifications and quality you must be prepared to pay for it. These type of NVG's cost between $3500-$4000 depending on the features.

I hope this helps ... I will leave it to the experts to correct anything that I might have unintentionally quoted above.
