Unfortunately, it looks like you're right, here's the response I got from Great Divide today.

Hi Jay,
I'm sorry to say that the hassles of dealing with LCBO don't offset our
interest in trying to get our beer to beer fans. The LCBO orders take a
lot of time and effort and we're so busy around here that it's hard to
justify. I'm sure it's not the answer you were looking for, but it's all we can
do at the moment.
Wow that sucks. I am so bored with beer selection in Ontario. Is Wellington IS on hiatus for the summer? Good thing I'm going to Buffalo in a week.
Sorry had to vent.
Damn. That's too bad. I was really looking forward to another order. There is plenty of beer outthere...and yet so much of it won't deal with the LCBO...how annoying.

The Castel on King in Kitchener will be getting a cask of the IS in a few weeks. I think Wellington is only making 3 of them. I'll keep you guys posted.
