Are you looking for new or used?  I'm a huge fan of the Sekonic L-308b, 
a nice, small, well-laid-out meter.  I've also been impressed by the 
Gossen Sixtomat Flash -- I don't like its handling as much as I like the 
Sekonic, but the Sixtomat will do multiple-pop flash exposure and also 
exposure range.  Both are semi-useful (the multiple-pop exposure is easy 
to do in your head if your meter doesn't offer it, and exposure range 
simply requires you to remember things and use subtraction, but both are 
nice to not have to think about).

Both of these guys are rather spendy new.  The Sekonic was $279 CDN last 
time I checked, and the Gossen is $329.  The Sekonic L-308b seems fairly 
common on the Toronto used market, don't know about the Gossen.
