Need to replace my all season and snow tires , what are folks using in Canada?

I can't recommend any all-season tires as I'm still running the original tires that came with my 2020 M3LR (currently at 19660 kms). For my winter wheels, I went with the Nokian Hakkapelitta's from Kal Tire on the OEM rims. I've been very happy with them although I'm told they have a bit more road noise than some other brands of winter tires. SInce they're the only winters I've had on my Model 3, I can't compare them to other tires.
 
For the ones who got Nokians for winter: is it pretty easy to find them in the GTA? I’m more worried if I have a flat and one or more tires need to be replaced.
I get my Nokian Hakkas at Kal Tire. I got a flat driving over some metal in my driveway and they replaced it for free (I swapped it for an all season at home for the drive into their shop).

I’m in Ottawa too. I’ve just finished the 4th winter on a set of 18” Conti Viking Contact 7s. I’ve been super happy with those, and I’ll probably buy another set this fall.
For the summer, I put a set of 19” Conti DWS06+, and those are great. They’re nice and quiet, and handle great.

interestingly, I notice a difference in acceleration with the 18s - they’re about 5lbs lighter per wheel, and it definitely faster. They just don’t look as cool tho.

I narrowed it down to Michelin Pilot Sport all season 4 and Conti DWS06+. Went with the Michelins 235/40 ZR 19 X Extra Load AA Traction A Temperature. Terrific tires. As well compared to the stock 2018 ContiSilents is the tires rim protector is actually outside the wheel face offering a bit more rim protection.
I got 67,000 km on the OEM tires and changed them at 3/10”. Could have run them a little longer but the flat tire made the decision for me.
