Well, they are rare in Canada. Royal sells an inexpensive one about which 
there is little information--just that it is latex. Unknown if it is 
"natural"(good)  or synthetic (bad) or whether it is entirely latex or 
just the core, with the top being bonded poly. About $1000 with 
foundation.
Eaton's sells a SpringAir, recent vintage. Apparently it is natural and 
from an Italian producer, known for their tires. About $1300 with 
foundation. 
The big mattress companies don't seem to want to produce this kind of 
mattress because latex is now very expensive. 
I wonder if anybody else has been following this trail and what 
information or experiences they can share.
