Presque Isle sells a plastic screw cap that works well and is supposed

not a paper or Styrofoam seal that gets crushed which probably does
make that style harder to reseal.
Keep in mind there are different thread pitches, these don't fit all
bottles.
Here is the link; I use them for give away vinegar with no issues

I'm sure they are available in Canada too.
