.....Back in the early 80's I made about a dozen batches of kit beer
using a brand that was made in Winnipeg. I believe Thomas was in the
brand name but not certain of that. Did anyone else use this brand and
if so what ever happened to it? It was rather good as I recall.

I've been brewing since the early 90s, and it doesn't sound familiar. It
could be that I've just never run across it, but I suspect that it probably
no longer exists.

I believe the kits from Coopers were originally called Thomas Cooper. This
name is still used on their premium kit range.
