Mine came up by UPS (it was still a bike when it got here) and the two taxes was all I paid.
http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/general/p...005/ch87ne.pdf says 13%.
whether that actually gets applied consistently is another issue.
it depends on what they consider the "Country of Origin" to be. if it's the US it's free, or since it's likely manufactured in Taiwan or China, then the 13% might apply.
UPS didn't charge you a brokerage fee?
there's no PST on bikes and parts in BC. yay!
