Canadian Long Bonds: import quotes into excel?

I have spreadsheets that can pull stock quotes from MSN, and Yahoo, but I haven't been able to find a symbol (or a way) to get quotes on Canadian Federal Long bonds.  Has anyone here had success with doing this?

Thanks. I figured it out.

For those that use google docs, you can import this Canadian Federal Bond quote table
using this formula

=ImportHtml("http://www.globeinvestor.com/servlet/Pa ... gov&page=1", "table",1)

It appears to be updated daily.  I still need to figure out how to import the date, but's that's minor.
