It's $139 on the Chapters' site. My assumption is that it is the import duties from where it is manufactured into Canada that accounts for the difference in price with the US. I don't have much to base that on, but it has been true for other things. Kobo has said that retailers can price it themselves so it may be that WalMart or Best Buy/Future Shop will have a different price.
