I think anything over $20 CDN(called the de minimis) is subject to import
fees. In comparison, Americans have a $800 de minimis!

So much for “free trade”. We also have to pay tax on the CDN value.
The major carriers like Fedex, UPS, Purolator, etc all charge ridiculous
brokerage fees, so much so that the price of the goods can double by the
time it gets to your door. The best shipping method for Canadians is US
postal service/Canada post but many will not ship that way.
