My experience is telling me that there is some part of the Canada (for example in Toronto region) where you can buy 24 pack of 591ml bottles of water for as less as $2 and in some parts of the Canada (for example Vancouver) you can pay up to $10 for the same amount of water.

Of course the more expensive one will be advertised as amazing, healthy, pure sport and all kind of possible fancy names but it is what it is – just water. The good thing is that sometime you have a lot of choices so that you can chose which price category you want to buy.
But trust me I’ve seen a lot of stores in BC where you are not able to find that standard one. Only expensive ones are offered so have that thing in mind when going on a trip and put a 24pack in the truck just in case you might need it.
