Tom, http://www.riv.ca/english/html/how_to_import.html

and

Looks like you're probably good regarding duty/tax as *most* vehicles you can import from the states are duty-free.

ROFL. we had a credit union come in today to offer our company "special Rates" to us because they are also one of our customers.

i read through their pamphlet and they were offering $25 "Target" gift cards to those who signed up.

the rep came by my cube asking if i wanted to sit in the discussion about the rates, promotions etc...


i told her "no. your company is a Canadian sympothizer" and turned around and went back to working.

i wish i could have seen the undoubtedly puzzled and taken-aback look on her face

Sadly Brian, your desk phone is made in Canada as is your blackberry you so dearly love.
I think we've established that "Ka Ka" and "Tukki Tukki" don't work.

1st. i don't dearly love them

2nd. my $$ did not support. my company issued them to me. which i guess makes them also Canadian sympathizers..but I'm working on that
