I know that this is nearly spam, but I hope to find and build a closer canadian community of folks with this hobby.

A couple of guys have a really good forum at www.arcade4all.com.  The homepage is no heck, but there is a lot of good info in the forums. 

So if you're a canadian memeber and you face the same problems that we do, like duty on arcade parts from the USA, or distant suppliers, or a lack of shops/suppliers etc in your area, please drop by there and intro yourself to help discuss these problems.

Me? I'm in Ottawa (where the site is founded), which just happens to be the National Capital (for non Canadian readers.... and maybe a few Canadian readers ;)  )  I built my own cab from scratch and I used a Toronto suppler called Starburst Coin Machines as well as Andy from Ultimarc.

Most of the Canadian people into arcade machines, seem to hang out a www.cgcc.ca/forum

There are a couple on here that are also on that board.  It's been around for a bit, and a lot of helpful / smart guys on there.

Grauwulf:

CGCC is where I normally hang out as well. There is also a very active community at www.maaca.net as well, serving the Montreal and Ottawa area.

CheffoJeffo:

Same deal here ... I lurk at MAACA (and RGVAC and KLOV) and ocassionally stop by Arcade4All, but my normal haunts are here and CGCC. I live about 2 minutes North of Starburst in Toronto.

As far as customs and cross-border shipping goes, here is a invaluable reference:
