Would someone who is located in the US order something off an internet site for me, get it at home and then mail to me here in Canada? I would pay money first to make sure you don't get ripped off and when you get my money, you order it? Any takers?

That's a possibility too. It may be from EvoGear/Tramdock, who don't ship some brands to certain countires.

I bet someone would do that for you. Another thing you could try is to call the company directly and ask. Sometimes online check-out is different than a phone order. I've heard of a company that had the customer list the shipping address as the address of the company. Then once the order was placed/processed, the company called the customer to get their real address, and charged an additional fee to ship outside the US. never hurts to ask ya know?

Here is the dealio. I want to order some Oakley stuff off backcountry.com but they can't ship Oakley to Canada because Oakley doesn't want them to. Would anyone be interested in ordering something off there for me?
