In Canada, the Kobo Clara HD and the Kindle Paperwhite are (for some reason) more competitively priced.

Amazon.ca: Kindle Paperwhite, 4 GB 6" High-Resolution Display (300 ppi) with Built-in Light, Wi-Fi - CDN$ 139.99

Chapters.indigo.ca: Clara HD 6” Carta E-Ink 8GB 300 ppi ComfortLight PRO, Wi-Fi - CDN$139.95

As for the higher price of the Oasis versus the Forma, it's especially odd as Amazon.ca doesn't even mention in its Canada listing that the Oasis can do audiobooks, as apparently that feature isn't (yet?) available in Canada through audible.ca but only audible.com.
