That's interesting. On the couple of occasions that I've ordered something
from Canada online, I paid no tariff or import fees to have it delivered to me in the USA.
But, when I've shipped
to Canada from here, the import fees were added either to the sale (if I sold on Ebay, etc) or it was added when the postage label was created.
