Amanda, Of course you are correct and I figured that. I was thinking those household items where 20% tax then plus the GST and Environmental Tax. Hence 32%. Evidently I was incorrect in the 20% Duty??? No shipping charge to tack on so the duty must be more.
Most of my belongings have been purchased locally and I'm happy to give them my business. The items I've been bringing in are things that I have trouble finding or the quality isn't quite what I wanted. At any rate I'm not complaining just adding a little info to the conversation.
Be interesting to see what it comes out to on my next trip.
