A bit difficult to tell from the photo exactly what type of connector that is, I'm guessing some form of Molex? Sometimes you can find them at auto or marine parts supply shops. Princess Auto has a lot of cheap electrical gizmos with similar connectors that you could cannibalize for parts. Generally the pins in molex style connectors can be removed by pushing them out backwards. There is a tool to do this. The pins have a small tab that needs to be pushed in to release them. I don't have the tool so I've used a jeweller's screwdriver to remove them. Of course you will need new pins.

I've found a shop in Kelowna, Interior Electronics that carries all manner of electrical goodies, I'm sure a city the size of Edmonton will have something similar. Check the good old Yellow Pages, if you still have a phone book, for Electronics Retailers. Other than that, as suggested, there are online options.

Agreed that "The Source" is no longer a 'source' for this type of stuff!

Haven't found the exact style connector you're looking for yet
I know the style you want it comes with Tunze ATO and is also used for ATI cooling fans
Google search wire connector push in
