I've had great luck with Robot Shop in Montreal.

Quick shipping, CAD pricing, no customs.

>I've ordered my Atmega256RF from Digikey and my my Raspberrys from Newark. I haven't checked if Newarks/Digikey holds the other parts I need though. Sparkfun's prices aren't bulk but they do hold a good amount of plug and play items and I really don't feel like wasting time on this project. I haven't gotten screwed by imports using Sparkfun. I very much dislike UPS (unless I'm using the corporate account). I have a lot of bad experiences with their ninja deliveries over the last 10 years. They had the balls to hold and charge me for importing 0$ samples (long complicated story). But that's the pain we have to suffer importing parts to Canada.

>>Oh man, SparkFun is a cool concept but they're total rip-offs in price and shipping. Order it from Newark, you pay $8 shipping, and it'll be at your front door the next business day after shipping. Can't beat that! I order from them all the time for that reason.
