      that is a great deal at $6.01 . unfortunately seems companies can’t stick two trinkets in bag envelope and put a 2$ stamp on it to ship to Montreal which is not an overseas destination by any means .

      Can’t see why all the complaints about NAFTA with prices ending doubling and sometimes tripling 50 miles from Platsburg NY !

      JW’s and Evinrude weedless drive need 90 grade oil but being a non shifting gearcase I’ll stuff it cornhead grease . If my $20 Evinrude 3026 croaks on cornhead grease I’ll use it for parts.

        I hear what you are saying. But let’s get it more realistic. First you have to buy the padded envelope. Let’s say a buck. Then the postage from Platsburg to Montreal is 9.50 for 6 ounces. Finally, there is additional paperwork with the Customs form.

        But yes, I think they could ship to Canada. I do.

          iboats ships to Canada, and doesn’t gouge like some other vendors. I bought a bunch of stuff a while back and was quite happy. It takes a while to get but I blame Canada post for that.

          $5.20 USD for the Sierra equivalent

          Edit: Iboats has raised their shipping rates. Was about $8.00 last time I bought earlier this year. 😡

            Shipping in the US is so much cheaper than shipping in Canada. While at the post office recently, I took a couple pics for future reference of small Canada Post supplied boxes and padded envelopes. There’s tax on top and extra postage involved to get an item delivered south of the border.

            If you can wait for delivery, try shopping where most items originate from now, across the big pond to the West to avoid the middleman and take advantage of free shipping.
