Try contacting a company in Scarborough, Ontario called Drug Trading
Company Limited.  I purchased Fuller's earth from a drug store years
ago (100 g, labelled "Certified Fuller's Earth") and still have it
in their name is on it as the supplier/distributor and they appear
to still exist.  It was sold to "relieve and prevent skin chafing"
so if they can't help you, perhaps another pharmaceutical
distributor can.
