There are at least two otaku clubs (one of which runs Animethon -- typically Heritage Day weekend or the one after) with whom you should be in contact (I am not but that Google search should work).
Further, Happy Harbor and Warp One/Two have (increasingly) less extensive selections. These are easily findable.
You should wander around Chinatown and look especially for Universal and Viet Hoa. Be careful about the presence of English subs and Region 1 or 0 compatibility.
On-line, Netflix is a worthy investment. Look at crackle.com for a small collection of series. (If you tolerate piracy, torrent downloading may work for you, too.)
Feel free to contact me (using this name and shaw period ca) if you so wish to.
