Anyone know where I can source one of the attached dryer vent termination in Ontario, Canada?

Dryer vents should have flaps that close.

That style vent in your picture would would just stay plugged up and stop the dryer from drying and may even cause a fire.
The one Neal posted also will start sticking over time and the flaps will start sticking unless you keep it cleaned out.
There just is no 100% great vent, I use the one with the round flapper with a snap on cover, but it also needs to have the cover removed and be cleaned out or it will plug up and not seal.
But no way would I use the one you suggested!

Dryer vents exhaust some fine lint. I have never found one that would stay clean long term. Cleaning them is a maintenance item, like all the other maintenance items on a residence.

The pictured vent cap is the one the builder installed. I was going to match it for use with a bathroom exhaust fan, but maybe I will pull that one out from the dryer and replace it with a proper dryer vent.
