Hi Steve. Yes, Canada Post does charge a $5 brokerage fee but I think only if the item is over a certain amount of money and they need to collect taxes for the gov't. That's when they charge the $5 fee.

Here's what I found:

http://www.canadapost.ca/personal/to...b06-e.asp#c006

"Gifts from friends and relatives, valued at $60CDN or less, are duty and tax exempt. Goods imported into Canada, valued at $20CDN or more, are subject to all duties and taxes."

"Canada Post has taken over many of the material-handling and revenue-collection functions previously performed by Canada Customs. A handling fee of $5CDN per dutiable or taxable mail item is applied. "

So looks like no fee for me for under $20. Great.
