As for me, I live close to the border and had mine shipped to a US receiver which substantially reduced the shipping. The receiver only charged 2.40. But when I brought through the border I was charged gst and pst, which brought the cost pretty much up to what I would have paid for shipping to Canada.

I did ask entourage if they had customs and brokerage fees included and they said no. So it seems that the people that had it shipped directly, lucked out with whoever was making the decisions at the Canadian Border Services that day.
