Let' s say I order the flashlight in the US. Will I have to pay additional Canadian Tax (when it comes through customs or when it arrives at my canadian adress)?

Thanks for your help!

Yes, you'll have to pay GST and PST and a brokerage fee for Customs Canada. If you buy something from the US, try to get the person shipping it for you to a) use USPS, you can often avoid brokerage fees by using the postoffice. Couriers, like UPS or FedEx, will stiff you with brokerage fees for sure; b) mark the "gift" box on the customs shipping label, then you can avoid the taxes.

But rather than buying a $200 flashlight, you could go through 10 $20 Garrity lights. Buy a cheap one and if you lose it/break it, go buy another.

You don't have to pay gst or pst for something not bought in Canada... Just like in ontario you wouldn't have to pay pst ordering something from BC.

Aslong as it's shipped with USPS you probably won't get slapped with a fee.

Yes you do, you have to pay GST when you import anything to Canada that is taxable. You usually won't get caught if it's shipped by post, but if it comes by UPS or Fed-Ex, you're gonna get billed the GST, plus brokerage.
