Sigma-Aldrich sells MS medium, vitamins, and agar. They do ship out from Ontario and orders come relatively quickly (usually overnight) within Ontario. Can be pricey.
Phytotechnology Laboratories is in the US and specializes in plant tissue culture media. Plantmedia (bioWorld)is in the US and also ships to Canada. There is a brokerage fee the shipping company charges in addition to the shipping charge.
To save on cost you can try using food-grade agar instead of the technical or lab-grade stuff.
Added: I may be fastidious, but MS is usually capitalized since they stand for Murashige and Skoog, the names of the two scientists that came up with the formulation.

I think I found a home recipe that might work if I dilute the nutrients. And lol I usually do caps, but I forgot haha here's the recipe that I could modify. Maybe let me know what I should Dilute?. Table Sugar: 1/8th Cup Tap Water: 1 Cup Nutrient Solution (1/4 tsp 10-10-10 fertilizer to 1 gal tap water): 1/2 Cup Inositol Tablet (250mg): 1/2 Tablet Vitamin Tablet with Thiamine: 1/4 Tablet Agar Flakes (Food Grade from Health Store): 2 Table Spoons Thanks
