 Given that he's so close to the US, it is a minor inconvenience to take it to the store in the US for any work that needs to be done under warranty.

 Jay, the price is comparable, it’s just that right now the conversion is
us$ 1.00 to cn$ 1.25.

We’re used to a closer to parity rate.  :-p

One might save a good bit in taxes in the US, but then, you may need
warranty service down the line and be happier buying from Sony Canada
dealer from Canada.
