Shipping from the states is a pain in the a$$. If you can get them to ship it Fedex air or USPS air you most likely won't get dinged for anything.
Everyone in the USA LOVES UPS and they ship everything with it. And even if Canada customs doesn't charge you duty or taxes they will charge you brokerage for just looking at it. From now on I try to avoid getting anything from the US. I hate UPS. Nothing but trouble.
Just my two cents, Enjoy.
