I looked into shipping to Canada since I am in Maine, USA you'd think it would be pretty easy, but it appears otherwise. You could look into importing a tegu into Canada and drive down to Maine August 28th for the Portland Maine Reptile Exo. I will have a few tegu hatchling for sale there.
Canada's laws on such activities are pretty lax at the moment. Essentially, Canada really doesn't have any kind of restrictions of its own to speak of other than banning the import of any kind of chelonian or chelonian product (turtles, tortoises, turtle eggs, anything made from any part of a chelonian). However, the caveat here is of its own. Canada respects CITES and whatever the laws of the exporting nation is, ie. if the US has restrictions on the exporting of these animals, you are legally required to honour them before bringing an animal from the states here. Furthermore, each province has it's own set of laws concerning exotic pets that you'll need to look up. In Saskatoon I can legally bring in anything as long as give advance notice to the authorities, in Alberta, however, I am not allowed most larger snakes, crocodilians, anything the authorities determine to be "large and a hazard to the public" (really nice clear legislation). So essentially, check your provinces legislation before you do anything.
