Ship to the United States (Temporarily Suspended due to Executive Order 14324)

The US President's Executive Order 14324 "Suspending Duty-Free De Minimis Treatment for All Countries" came into effect on July 30, 2025.  This Executive Order would require an increase to the US purchase price of our 2025 Canadian Trackside Guide ® to cover the 35% tariff and the elimination of the exemption from duty for goods valued at less than $800.  As a result, the Society is temporarily suspending the sale of the guide to our US customers. We will continue to monitor the US tariff situation and adjust our publication sales offering for our US customers accordingly.
