Our cost, thanks to the exhorbitant "luxury" tax our government puts on tobacco products is three times what you guys in the US pay for the exact same cigar.
I think there is a federal component to the tax as well as a provincial component. Here in BC I'm sure the cost is even higher. I believe the local B&M had 1926's at $115 per stick.
