    It was $200 for a long time(Thanks to GOP sycophant Stephen Harper), then after covid it was jumped up to something like $500 to kickstart cross border travel. Then it was reduced to $20.

      Yes, for cross-border shopping with at least 48 hrs spent in the US.

      But for mail order shipments it’s $20.
