I went to buy some plants last night at my local aquarium store but
the salespeople didn't know much about them. They didn't even know
their names. PetSmart at least had them labeled but they didn't have
what I was looking for. Where else can you get plants in Canada?

I ended up with a couple of mystery sword plants(maybe), some
grass-like stuff and a Java fern (at least they knew that one).

At least you found something you could identify. Around Chicago it seems
like all the stores (private or chain) try to sell the same stuff over and
over with incorrect information attached to them. Seems like they find an
ID-spike not attached to a plant and they place it in the first palnt they
touch to make it look better.
