Some of these Czech tradditions are very interesting especially when it comes to the annual easter whiping :S I used to have an easter whip but it kinda fell apart over the years and i was wondering if anyone knew where i could get a new one....in Canada. (I have an urge to invite my friends over and give them a good whipping )
Sorry, I have no idea where you could find a Czech Easter whip in Canada. Of course you could make one yourself... They're sold on the streets in the Czech Rep. before Easter, just in case you're planning a visit.
Some people prefer to make their own whips (pomlázka in Czech). See http://www.e-hracky.cz/udelej/pomlazka.htm, http://www.volny.cz/nohap/, http://mujweb.atlas.cz/www/pomlazka/ or just use "pomlázka" as a search word in your favorite search engine to find out more on this craft.
