it all depends on how they ship it.
sometimes US Postal is able to get through without fees but you should be prepared to pay the sales tax/hst on anything you buy out of country

Not quite sure how backcountry.com does it, but I just sent a package to Canada with no fees; however, at first I was going to get charged a lot more because the postal worker thought it was over a certain weight. So basically I believe that the weight of the package may have some relevance to any customs fees, etc. but I'm not 100% on that.
