Default Microscopes, any in Calgary?

Any ideas on where to get a decent microscope in Calgary? I want something better than the junk toy stores sell, and ideally something with a digital camera built in or one that you can add on (so you can see the stuff on a computer screen).

I've found an online place that seems to have what I want:

http://www.microscopenet.com/compoun...e-c-25_35.html

But can't find anything local, and I don't know if the prices at that site are good or not (anything with a half price sale makes me suspicious).

Use is for a kid who's interested in microbiology, and want something that will actually give good views of stuff rather than the cheap ones which are far too finicky and crappy to give a good view.
