industrial supplier in Ontario, similar to the one in Alberta so they should sell in smaller bales or drums

Just found a home made version of Casting sand...
Play sand & fireclay....

 

that is a good idea

 

Guessing I can find fireclay powder in a pottery shop..

 

Yes and there is a larger supplier in southern Ontario, found it

I don't know what your casting but I tried The play sand and kitty litter recipe off the net for my first grinder drive pulley and it worked. The play sand is a little coarse though. So if your casting guards or pommels it might be too rough.
