Welcome Graham.
Wait a little while. We have a lot of BC, Alberta, Washington, and Oregon GMCers on here. It is just a little early in the morning for them to be on here.
The previous recommendation for Jim K. at Applied GMC is a good one. I'm just suggesting that you wait to see if anyone closer to you has one.

I'm pretty sure any Zip Dee approved retailer can get you one. This link will take you to Canadian dealers:

However, if you are planning to do it yourself, might as well get one from Applied as it will absolutely, 100%, be the correct one with the correct pieces for your coach.

Zip dee is the best, and should last forever.(the one on my coach was from the 80's). You can go to Jim K, or direct to zip dee. not cheap, going to run you $2000.
Shipping an awning sucks and is not cheap. 18' long, and they stick you good for the shipping on that oversized stuff. I have seen quotes for $350-500 just for shipping.
Jim can also get lesser cost awnings, but they are different mounts, and different fit. and I am not sure if there is many 30-40 year old non-zip dee awnings out there still working 100%.
if you do go with a zip dee, reach out and can walk you through installation. They are pretty simple to install on our coaches.
Used awnings are a trick to find.

We are in Northern CA, we deal with lot of the people in BC.
Suggest the Zip Dee awning, as it is the best one.
We also supply all the other brands.

With Zip Dee's?!?
I'd like the list, too! My old Fiamma/Dometic was a PITA - until I finally tore it off. To add insult to injury, it appears that my GMC had a Zip Dee at some point in the last 40 years...
