They only sell it on Amazon USA and the message comes up doesn’t ship to Canada.

In general the hypertonic saline if at all is only used in the hospital for inpatients.

Similarity there are no respiratory physiotherapists you can see as an out patient from the hospital.

No respirology nurses to ask questions of.

FYI- I am in Canada. In Ontario. I saw a respiratory therapist and I get hypertonic saline at a local pharmacy.

My family doctor referred me to a pulmonologist, and I got referred to the respiratory therapist through him. As for 7% hypertonic saline, I was ordering it online from Amazon.ca, but they quit selling the brand I like, so I asked the pharmacist in a small independent pharmacy to order it. She seems to have no problem accessing it from a supplier in Quebec, and bringing it in for me. I never gave her a prescription.
Perhaps some of these avenues could work for you.

I have a "recipe" from another group for inhaled saline. I am happy to share with you. It needs to be made and stored under sterile conditions.
