Default RE: Quebec Winter Caribou Hunting

I do indeed belong to AAA, but 'got a hunch' sent a thorough collection of maps with which to find my way there and back.

Speaking of directions, I understand that a compass in that part of the country is absolutely useless since that is the region of magnetic north. Does anyone know if compasses can be purchased in the area that are adjusted for the local magnetic power?

I like to carry a compass when I am hunting, but I am certain that my regular compass will not be reliable in Quebec. Without a compass one must rely on the sun, which is hard to do in cloudy, overcast conditions.
