NAFTA got rid of any Duty for products made in NA. Shipping....not a very good excuse IMO. Most of Ontario's market is farther south than all of the bordering states and sometimes 2 rows of states in.

I may just be talkin out my arse here but, just because the unit has an ecotech sticker on it doesn't mean it was made in the US.... course I don't this this for sure, but you never know

What ever the case it sounds like pfoster/aquadigital had some say in the final MRSP for Canada. It would be nice if he came out and told us what ever his reasons are for the higher price.

I dont even think that the price is that outrageous. For similar pendant style fixtures and the same functionality your looking at the same price or more.

Don't get me wrong I too would like to see the price drop by $75 as well but their not out to lunch.
