I can attest to that.... I'm in the US and was trying to sell a Japanese-made figure to a fellow poster in Canada and the customs/tax/fees made almost tripled the final cost causing me to just give up. I also see why Fred Gallagher (Megatokyo) resisted shipping to Canada for so long.

I can see this sort of thing for items competing with stuff *made in Canada*... but for items that simply are not manufactured there it makes very little sense.
