I am not too sure about up in Canada, but we got one here in the US for $30 for a wild caught baby. I found one place online that was selling CB babies for $60 plus shipping.
Dont get an HMD if you want an active lizard! They sit, sit, sit, sit, then sit around some more. Every once in a while they will stroll over to the water bowl, get a drink, and bathe. Then they return to their spot and sit some more. They are great for kids because they do not move very much. About the only time we can get ours to do any significant movement is when we pull her out and hold her. She will quickly take off for the highest spot that she can get to and hang out with almost a smile on her face
As for eating make sure you can get earth worms. Ours eats mostly earth worms and occasionally a meal worm. One or two small earth worms is about all she will eat.
Here is a pic of her and one of her "perches".....
