This, thankfully, is no longer true, as Amazon dropped the old Whispernet surcharge for Canadian users several months ago. People overseas (outside of the UK and maybe Australia) are still stuck with it, though.
As for Kobo, their selection is admittedly lacking, but for the books they do have, the pricing often works out for the best once you factor in the discount coupons and the fact that they charge in Canadian dollars.
I picked up a slew of books for between $2.90-3.60 each including taxes using their most recent $3 off coupon. These had been on my Amazon wishlist, where they go for $5.39-$6.29 even with the "You save 20%" regular markdown.
