Someone a while back wrote "a partial agreement [between Canada and USA]
is currently being negotiated."

Canada and the USA have had a free trade agreement for over two years.
The differences in price are mainly due to the following:
1. a Canadian dollar is NOT a US dollar.
2. Canada has a different taxation system
3. Canada is NOT the USA (thank god).
