I've heard good things about western digital and that is what I put into my last macbook and probably will in my new MBP

ATM the 500 gb WD Scorpio Blue looks like the preferred choice by most here. You can get it in Canada from Compu2000 for a pretty good price ...

Take a look here http://techreport.com/articles.x/17010
They recommend the 5400rpm 500GB WD Blue over the higher speed Seagate. There won't be much of a difference to be honest unless you reading/writing alot of small files e.g. 1GB of 100KB files. Also the 5400rpm tend to run cooler and quieter and last longer than their quicker counterparts.

Ordering a macbook pro so going through the same motions.
