Where to find torpedo melons in Toronto?

Ontario (inc. Toronto) Melons Fruit Where to Buy...

I am wondering if anyone has found where to buy Torpedo melons in Toronto. They look like rugby footballs, large, long and oval, but with a yellow-green skin similar to a cantaloupe. They have light green to yellow flesh similar to a honeydew melon, but the taste is consistently sweeter like a honey dew or canary melon, but with a cantaloupe undertone.
