You could try mail order from Mountain Equipment Coop in Vancouver.
The Toronto store has a bunch of them in stock - I was looking at them
after the discussion here.   However, it's not in the latest catalog, so
they may not sell it by mail.  I can't remember the exact price, but it seems
to me it was around C$30 with windscreen.  That's only around US$20.

www.mec.ca  (the usual disclaimers apply).

PS - after cooking with an alcohol stove for three weeks  on a sailboat
twenty three years ago, I still can't bring myself to use an alcohol
stove today.  Too low a cooking temperature.
