There is Yuttadhammo Bhikkhus place in Ontario I believe. His site is sirmangalo.org. Theravada, Mahasi Saydaw tradition.

Arrow River with ajahn punnadhammo
A dying man can only rely upon his wisdom, if he developed it. Wisdom is not dependent upon any phenomenon originated upon six senses. It is developed on the basis of the discernment of the same. That’s why when one’s senses start to wither and die, the knowledge of their nature remains unaffected. When there is no wisdom, there will be despair, in the face of death.

- Ajahn Nyanamoli Thero
