Taxes are always the same, based on the province you are shipping to. UPS brokerage starts at $54 from my experience and goes up depending on the value of the item. Fedex and Purolator have lower brokerage fees than UPS. UPS is the highest.

On another note, be aware when you buy items with warranty from the US you will acquire US warranty which means you have to ship the item back to the US in order to get any warranty work done. I don't care how cheap an item is in the US I will buy it in Canada so that shipping for warranty work is actually worth it. Shipping to the US for warranty costs too much for the warranty to be useful...you may as well count it as no warranty. I would rather pay a little more in Canada and have a warranty that is actually worth something.
