I had one of those tanks, they are a nice setup... $800 bucks is the going rate in Canada, and that is what I also paid.
Remember US products are cheaper, but it does cost for shipping, insurance and of course the duty. If you have never shipped from the U.S. duties can sometimes really cost you... If you ship things using USPS (US Mail) then duties tend to only be $5, but I don't think you will be able to ship that using them.
Another point brought up is warranty, if brought across the border then it is grey market, and with no warranty.
For example, my JBJ chiller for the unit failed, because I bought it here, I got it replaced by the LFS... If from the U.S. you probably have a $450 door stop.
In my opinion, just by Canadian and you won't have any problems.
