Vancouver, British Columbia · Squarespace shop

Mario prints tabletop wargaming tokens to order in Vancouver — status-effect, soul, corpse, dig-in and hunger-and-torment markers, full colour-coded army token sets for Warmachine armies from Jungle Trolls to Vampire Elves at $15 to $40 CDN, seasonal upgrade packs and $10 command card decks — each token a printed paper sticker inset into a 3D-printed disc, with STL files sold for players who print their own.

This 50% tariff comes from the invocation of Section 338 of the US Tariff act. · centuriontactics.ca, Sep 9, 2026

Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta · Squarespace shop

Natural Canadian Fur Products turns wild-trapped (mostly Alberta) beaver, otter, fisher, lynx, muskrat and fox into trapper hats, pillbox and roller hats, gauntlet mitts, mukluks and parkas from a Fort Saskatchewan shop, priced from CA$525 for a lynx pillbox to CA$3,295 for a sheared beaver bomber, and sells dressed pelts on the side.

Its gauntlet mitts, hats, mukluks and parkas are articles of apparel and clothing accessories of furskin, HTS 4303.10.00 on the CBP Section 338 list, carrying an additional 50% duty since August 22, 2026, and the dressed otter and fisher pelts it sells alongside them fall under HTS 4302.19.30, which the September 8 White House annex adds at 50% from September 15, 2026 — so a CA$695 beaver gauntlet and a CA$295 otter pelt both cross the border at half again their price. Separately, the shop already tells American buyers that "products made from/containing Seal cannot be imported into the United States." · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

Cochrane, Alberta · Wix shop

Sam and her mum, Mama Lily, hand-knit made-to-order Christmas stockings in six styles out of Cochrane, Alberta — Themed and Custom Mash Up at CA$155, Cable Knit, Vintage Holiday, Fair Isle and Nordic Inspired at CA$145, plus matching mini pet stockings at $80 — each drawn up from scratch with the buyer's own colours, names and motifs and knit over 20 to 30 hours.

A hand-knit Christmas stocking is an article for Christmas festivities under HTS 9505.10.25, a line on the CBP Section 338 list — CBP put a knitted-fabric Christmas stocking on exactly that subheading in ruling N323824 — so every stocking Lily N' Stitch ships to an American family now carries a 50% duty on top of the price, in effect since August 22, 2026. On the shop's own CA$155 themed stocking that is about $77.50 in duty on a piece that took 20 to 30 hours to knit, and the shop quotes one flat cross-border rate for it: "There is a $20 flat rate for Canadian and US orders, with orders over $400 shipping free." Lily N' Stitch has published nothing about the measure. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

Alex Furs cuts, sews and finishes fur coats, jackets, capes, stoles, boleros, collars and hats above a Spadina Avenue boutique in Toronto, working in mink, broadtail, chinchilla, Russian sable, fox, lynx, beaver, marten and Persian lamb, and taking bespoke commissions that start from a drafted pattern and a muslin fitting before the fur is cut.

Fur coats, jackets, capes and hats are articles of apparel and clothing accessories of furskin, HTS 4303.10.00 on the CBP Section 338 list, so a 50% duty has sat on top of every Alex Furs garment entering the United States since August 22, 2026. The boutique prices its pieces in US dollars, from a US $1,500 blue fox trooper hat to a US $80,800 Barguzin Russian sable, and ships "by Canada Post and by postal services around the world", so the duty lands on the American customer at the border. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

Calgary, Alberta · Shopify shop

GooseMinis prints tabletop gaming miniatures to order in resin and filament out of a Calgary shop — dragons, undead, orcs and goblins, sea creatures, sci-fi troopers and anthropomorphic animals from licensed sculptors like Epic Miniatures, Goetia and Rocket Pig — alongside Printable Scenery terrain and dungeon tiles, laser-cut and sculpted bases, paint and tokens.

Tabletop miniatures and scale terrain are "dolls, other toys; reduced-scale ("scale") models" under HTS 9503.00.00 on the CBP Section 338 list, carrying a 50% additional duty since August 22, 2026. GooseMinis runs a US storefront priced in USD and its shipping policy already puts the border charges on the buyer — "Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply" — so an American gamer's $43.99 dragon now arrives with half its value again in duty. The shop has not said publicly what that has done to its US orders. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

New York Furs has cut and finished fur garments on Adelaide Street in Toronto's fashion district since 1923, today at 342 Adelaide St West, showing "fur coats, shawls, scarves, hats, trimmed hoods, and custom garments" in its showroom and doing cold storage, cleaning, repairs and restyling for coats clients already own.

Fur coats, capes, vests, hats and trimmed hoods are articles of apparel and clothing accessories of furskin, HTS 4303.10.00 on the CBP Section 338 list, so a garment cut in the Adelaide Street workroom and sold to an American client has carried a 50% US duty under HTS 4303.10.00 since August 22, 2026. New York Furs sells from its showroom rather than an online store and its site says nothing about the duty. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

Posterjack turns customers' own photographs into wall art at a print shop on Brown's Line in Etobicoke: canvas, acrylic, HD and brushed metal, wood and framed prints, satin, glossy, metallic pearl and fine art paper prints, plus layflat photo books, calendars, folded cards, coasters and photo mugs.

Posterjack's photo prints, poster prints and fine art prints are printed pictures and photographs under HTS 4911.91.40 on the CBP Section 338 list, carrying an added 50% duty since August 22, 2026. The company's American storefront, posterjack.com, is run by the same Ontario corporation from the same Etobicoke address - its privacy policy states "posterjack.com is an offering from Online Print Decor Inc., 77 Brown's Line, Unit D, Toronto, ON, M8W 3S2" - so the prints it ships to customers across the continental United States cross the border on that line. Posterjack has published nothing about the measure. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026

Beaver fur mitts are articles of apparel and clothing accessories of furskin, HTS 4303.10.00 on the CBP Section 338 list, so a $600 pair sent to an American buyer has carried a 50% US duty under HTS 4303.10.00 since August 22, 2026. Carriere ships from an off-grid home with no road access and has not said publicly what the duty has done to her orders. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026
