Anyways, importing anything to Canada is almost true. I once imported Cuban cigars to Vancouver, Canada directly from Cuba to some family members. They would then send the cigars over mail to me.
After about 3 years of doing that, I finally got nailed by US customs for importing illegal things made in Cuba. I paid a heavy fine but I still made enough money to buy some nice things.
I only paid $25 for the cigar box, plus shipping from Canada to me and a 15% to my family member. I would usually get a few hundred for the cigar box. After the 1st year I didnt need new customers anymore, I had a nice wealthy customer base for the cigars.
With the new political talks between Cuba and the US, the prices are going to drop if the Cuban embargo gets lifted by Congress.
thank you Canada
