When a cord broke on one of our blinds I searched for a blinds business fairly close to Transcona. I found two small ones ... but neither could sell me cord. Further searching found Vari-Ray Blind Co. One pleasant phone call and one very satisfying visit to Darryl at his shop (with a piece of the broken cord in hand), and I now have enough cord of the correct size and color to fix the broken blind, with spare cord to fix its twin when it breaks.
