16mm bit or machine shop?

Can anyone help me out, I'm looking for a 16mm drill bit or shop that has one where I can drill some holes from 14mm to 16mm. I've already tried a couple stores, canadian tire, home depot, but nothing. If anyone can help, I'm in the Mississauga-Brampton area, preferrably Brampton. Thanks.

Go to a place that sells tools for machine shops, 16mm is metric and Canadian tire won't have it. or if its not precise, use a imperial drill to get close to that

get a 5/8" drill bit, comes really close to 16mm, about 15.88mm. then just lightly dremel the hole to be 16mm. thats what i did.

^ I was thinking of buying the 5/8 but I want it to be a perfect fit,
does anyone know any good shops where I could either buy a 16mm drill bit or get it done, and if you know how much it would be to get it done at a shop>?
