Default Where to buy large area copper clad boards in Canada?

On the subject of copper clad what is the best way to cut it into the
sizes one need? I would assume using it for constructing boxes would be
pretty time consuming using hacksaw and files. Short of a full size
bench saw is there anyother lower cost/ smaller size electric saw that
would work well with CC ?

=====================================
To cut fibreglass or phenolic copperclad boards I use a carpet knife
(repaceable Stanley type) After carefully scoring (deeply) along a steel
ruler it breaks very neatly . Finish with a file or amaril paper .
