14% of the "Value" of the item(s).
if your product is has a drastically reduced value on the customs declaration, 80% of the time they will charge you tax on that amount.
There are the times when they will open it and inspect it, judge the condition and based on used or retail value on the item will tax you on that.
Use USPS when shipping from U.S to Canada as they do not have a brokerage company that deals with that stuff, it will come direct without any third party invlovment and brokerage fee's.
Good Luck!
