There was a study done recently where some academics studied Canadian and US price differences for the same products. After accounting for all identifiable differences in cost such as exchange and freight, the Canadian prices were still higher. Their conclusion was that Canadian merchants charged higher prices because they could. i.e. lack of price competition
