I am using Questrade and if I do a look up for VIX.IN, I find it:
However, I can't find S&P/TSX 60 VIX:
Why is this?
I can see that it is being traded...

You can trade VXX, but VIX is only an index. www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/VXX?CountryCode=US
S&P/TSX 60 VIX (CAD) is an equation and as the implied volatility of two close to the money TSX 60 options change, the output changes. This is why the intra-day price fluctuates on a graph like a traded product. Although VIXC can't be traded, it can still be used as an important signal for traders.
The excerpt is from slide 12, more information can be found here. www.m-x.ca/f_publications_en/vixc_presentation_en.pdf
