Try Mohawk paints, they do trade inside Canada, and do manufacture shading lacquers. Their website will probably tell you which dealers are nearest you. As for satin verses semi gloss, I would go with semi gloss, or gloss preferably, satin gets damaged too easily, but some refinishers like it because it covers up flaws so they don't have to do as much prep work.
Regards
