You couldn't be more wrong. It DOES matter where the product is manufactured. It doesn't matter if it's "assembled" in the USA. If it's manufactured outside North America, it DOES NOT qualify under NAFTA as duty-free.

My wheel example above should have told you that!

There are of course many instances where the country of origin is not "specified". But do you really want Canada Customs to seize your shipment? My wheels were seized; although mine was for under value issues and not country of origin issues. And Canada Customs is really getting "picky" because the value of the Canadian dollar has increased close to par. Their reasoning as to why they are looking very closely at ALL shipments is beacuse of the big increase of products coming from the USA.

You can really do what you want, but the penalty for making false disclosures or no disclosure is $1000 fine AND the forfiture of the shipment. IE: means you lose everything.
