    Hello all.

    Mario, I lab rep has been by twice to hunt up some business. After decades of ignoring Quebec, suddenly they want a piece of the action. I was blunt and told them I was not willing to re-learn a whole complete new line of lens charcteristics and was not willing to switch my clients to something (lens) that I know nothing about. Unless they are giving things away, I doubt very much that they will invest the money for a lab in Quebec.

    Well, turn's out they did. I understand that they are in Laval and just starting up.

    My rodenstock rep has been hinting at something "big" happening soon... could this be it?

    I know but I can't tell you, but a considerable investment has been made to ensure that the Rodenstock brand and quality will be available to Canadians.

    Too little too late, not to mention it's a brand no longer in demand for the Canadian market for some time now. Leading edge companies ahead of the curve are having a challenging time so best of luck to them, theyre going to need it!
