Replacement Brake Levers

Hi All, I'm converting an old Norco to a single speed, and need to find replacement brake levers. Currently, the bike has drops, and grip brakes with DiaCompe "calipers" (for lack of better term). I want to keep the drops, but change the brakes to be normal levers on the flats. I learned that you need to find brake levers that are compatible with canti/road style brakes because they are short pull, while anything listed for V-brakes are long pull.
Any suggestions for levers that won't cost me a fortune? (In Canada)
the handlebars are 22.2mm diameter.
