Thanks to all that replied to my request for GF wraps in Ottawa, Ontario - 
Canada.  Below you'll find a summary of the responses I received.
Healthy & safe eating to all! ~ Judith :o)

I am in Toronto, but I have bought wraps at the Loblaws and Superstore here, 
so perhaps you may be able to find them near you.
There are "small" fresh corn-flour wraps (I have also found these at 
Dominion... right with the non-GF wraps in the bakery section)
and also "large" frozen rice-flour wraps-- they are actually quite tasty 
when thawed.  I have found them in the freezer section of the
Health Food aisle. I believe the brand of the rice wraps is Food for Life.
*************************************************************************************************
See if you can find 'Food For Life' brown rice wraps. They're pretty good 
and here (T.O), Loblaws carries them.
*************************************************************************************************
Although I don't live in Ottawa, I believe the gf wraps can be purchased at 
any Loblaws Superstores.  Also, if you have fortino's in Ottawa I'm pretty 
sure all their stores carry them.  If all else fails they can be purchased 
by mail at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.  I bought the gr rice 
wraps and for the life of me I have no idea what to do with them.  I tried 
warming them up but was unable to roll them so if you can find out how to 
handle them would you let me know.  I would really appreciate it as I watch 
these ads on tv and they look so good but I had no luck whatsoever.
*************************************************************************************************
When I was in Ottawa this summer someone referred me to the natural food
market upstairs at Billingsgate Shopping Centre.  I didn't like the food
that I got from the bakery on Bank street - it was really dry and
unappealing.  We ended up throwing it out, but if you have multiple
allergies it might be worth trying.
*************************************************************************************************
The best place in Ottawa to find anything Gluten-free is the Natural Food 
Pantry
in Kanata (on Hazeldean Rd.).  The second best place is the Natural Food 
Pantry
in Billings Bridge, but I don't believe they have much choice for wraps.  I 
know
the one in Kanata has a much bigger selection of gluten-free items in 
general.
Let me know if you have any questions.  I live in Kanata, and have pretty 
much
tried everything in that store.  There are specific gf foods there that I 
can
recommend that are reliably good and that kids would enjoy.
*************************************************************************************************
I just came back from a Trade Show in Boston. The "hot" wrap / tortilla
there was from La Tortilla Factory - not certain if theyare availalbe widely
in Canada. Maybe a store like Rainbow Foods would know how to get them? Good
luck.  Linnk:
