we ship to canada all the time.
we use USPS global priority for everything that can go in an envelope.
and UPS standard for larger shipments.

I have shipped to Canada. It's really not that hard and costs only a bit more. Any true business should be able to figure it out. Thus, I'm sure most of our sponsors can.

I find a lot of times when US company's ship to Canada you end up with a huge brokerage fee on top of the shipping and the exchange rate. It ends up being cheaper just buying from a canadian company

that is understandable... but unfortunatly that cannot be contorlled by the shipper... the taxes, and fees are all from the gov't.....

I know Paul (Woodward Specilities) and I have both weighed in on this, it is not our descision, or reign to make international customers pay the fees imposed from importing goods. I will say, I did some light research on this and found the adverage was about 10% cumulitive duty/fees. Food for thought, but of coarse I still advise customers to check with their own local customs agents.
