Mail order from Sépaq gift shops?

Is it possible to buy things online from the visitor center gift shop of the Jacques Cartier national park?

According to this page, it appears that a company named "Boutiques Nature" runs the shop.

I live in the US, and won't be visiting there any time soon, and I have no spoken French so I can't just call.

When we were there recently I saw gorgeous green, long-sleeved pull-over (maybe wool?) for abut $100 Canadian that I am wishing I had bought.

If it's a national park I would guess someone in the gift shop speaks English. It's probably worth a call.

An alternative would be to email them : parc.jacques-cartier@sepaq.com.

AFAICT, the SEPAQ doesn't have an online store. "Boutique Nature" is the name of the store in their varrious locations. The closest thing I found is this company : https://sepaq.arseno.qc.ca/ . They distribute clothing items and have a "SEPAQ" line, but nothing in there looks like what you describe.

Response by poster: I sent an email to the parc. Fingers crossed!

Best answer: They kindly let me know that the pullover is a Black Bear Poncho by Hooké -- sold online at https://hooke.ca/products/hooke-m-black-bear-poncho-dgr-fw22 in both my green as well as dark gray.

Sadly, the web store is out of stock and I can't find it for sale online anywhere else, either. *le grand sigh*

Mystery solved, I suppose, but without satisfaction. Unless.... Anyone in Canada know where they can get one of these in -person?
