Surely it's no cheaper in Canada.

It's $70 in Canada, which is 38 pounds.

It's not cheaper in Canada..... A box of 100sheets 5x7 RC is $92...before tax....so in Ontario you'd pay $105 Cdn.....

I looked at a 100 sheet box is £92 including 20% VAT. In Canadian that's $170. My local camera Store in Calgary wants $155 +5% GST, or $163. It will be more expensive in every other province when PST/HST is added.

So the UK is about the same price as Canada on a tax included basis.

Canadian and Australian dollar have always hovered around parity or near-parity; that film is around $82 in Australia presently.

That's expensive, it's the almost same price in CAD in Canada. That works out to $205 CAD, vs $154 in Canada.
