We have had to increase our shipping rates.
We try our best to delay increasing as long as possible but at a certain point we are unable to absorb Canada Post's increases. There have been 3 Canada Post increases since our last increase.
Our basic expedited shipping went up between $0.50 and $1.00. Express Post stayed the same for most places and we did not increase our Priority rates.
Ontario and Quebec is now $7.49 for basic shipping, our lowest shipping cost to Ontario is $8.62. Those are the rates to places like Toronto and Ottawa. We get a slightly better price to Quebec due to our proximity to the border but Montreal still costs us $8.07. Rural Ontario and Quebec is over $11 and farther away increases the cost even more.
For BC and Alberta, basic rates are now $10.95. We really didn't want to go above $10 but our cost is now $13.07 to Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver. Northern BC and Rural Alberta costs us over $15 now.
Atlantic Canada increased to $10.49 for basic shipping, our cost is $12.30 to Moncton, Charlettown and Halifax. Newfoundland stays the same at $10.95.

We understand shipping costs do go up, we aren't sure what the breaking point will be.
Sorry for the bad news.
