[QUOTE="ontariopiper, post: 538688, member: 3775"] In response to a few questions posted: Yes, Cuban cigars are still available in Canada. :D Sending tobacco north to Canada is [i]not[/i] banned or illegal. It [i]IS[/i] subject to duty and taxes, however, so sending a buddy a surprise gift of a pound of Latakia Flake may result in a hefty border charge for the recipient. To illustrate, a 100g tin of MacBaren Golden Extra on SP costs $12.35USD, approximately $16.50CAD this morning. The same 100g tin of Golden Extra is priced at $72.95CAD at my local B&M. That's a [b]$56.45CAD[/b] difference, made up mostly of taxes and import duties. This is the big reason Canadian pipers here don't participate in the US-based Bombing Runs or Box Passes. We can't afford it! [/QUOTE]
