I have ordered a few things from the states and I don't think you will have any problem shippimg in to Canada.We end up covering duty and broker cost (should they apply).Should the parcel be marked under a certian amount(I don't know the exact amount 20$ or 25$) we can miss the duty.I have been told to request USPS as it avoids brokers.
good luck

Use the post office.
Couriers will charge a large brokerage fee, on top of tax.

USPS Priority mail international. Maximum girth and length combined 108". Cheapest and easiest way to ship from US to Canada. Taxes are payed at delivery. No problems what so ever in 20 or so bows that came my way.
