where to buy wires?

I'm looking for different sizes of electrical wires, anyone know where I can buy them? So far, canadian tire only sells standard gauges. I'm specifically looking for really small ones.

Nedco, Gescan, Guillavan International, etc. Take your pick.

Some wholesalers might require that you spend a minimum amount in order to purchase something without an account.

It's for a back up camera. I need to wire a 12v to the front fuse panel. It's currently spliced into my xm receiver and I don't feel safe with that. Also other wires to make it more manageable.

Just use speaker wire.

We do have 4-wire conduit available at our shop as well. Just remember to solder and heat shrink all connections, especially if the wires are located outside the vehicle.
