The last time I picked up some red bird matches from Canadian Tire, I didn’t notice until I got home that they had changed to strike-on-box, “safety” matches!
When I discovered this heresy, I went back to the store and found the old and new stock all mixed up on the shelf. So I pulled out every remaining strike-anywhere box and brought it home.
But I fear that we are now without any good source for real matches. If you like them, I suggest you go clear out your local Canadian Tire of the good ones before they’re all gone.
