Well, and the government. As much as the GST was supposed to remove the manufacturers tax, it didn't it just added to it. We all knew that would happen and it did. Publishers do set prices in the various countries, but some of that is based on the cost of doing business in a given country. When it comes to price craziness like $5 more in Canada over the US, I just end up not buying it. I will buy the paper at that point, which is probably only $2 more that the US price, or I'll wait and borrow the book from the library.
