Either Chapters or Amazon.ca, depending on which has better prices for what I want!

I've never ordered books on line....usually Coles can get the book in for me within a short time...but with Walmart and Superstore carrying more and more books all the time usually don't have a hard time finding a book.....at least not yet anyways.

I've ordered from Chapters (via airmiles gift card) and from amazon.ca but lately I order online from my local independent bookstore Books & Company. They'll hold my order in the store until I can make it in to pick it up and will not charge me until I do so. And I like supporting a local business whenever I can.

I go to the US often, so I use amazon.com and have the item shipped to the office or ameri-friend/relative that I'm visiting. Of course this requires some advance planning, but the prices reflect the current exchange rate much closer than the Canadian stores.
