|  Does Customs Canada charge duty on simms from the states?                

Last time I hopped over the border, I made it a point to ask the
customs officer about computer hardware and software.  She assured me
that both hardware and software are *duty-free*.

Presumably, the same duty levels apply to mail-order packages as to
border crossing.

If you'd like a more definitive answer, look up "Canada Customs" in
the "Federal Government" section of your white pages.  They have have
a toll-free information number you could call.
