It is the fees you have to pay between the US and Canada. I broke out a skylight in my camper that is made in British Columbia. two hours from my house. I was told I had to buy the whole thing for 400 bucks when the only part I needed was the plastic skylight. When I got the unit, I called the manufacturer and asked them about just buying the plastic insert and they stated they only sell them to the US in bulk as a whole unit because of the transport fees. In other words, if I ordered the plastic piece from them directly it would have cost me $70 plus about 300 in fees to ship it to me. Maybe the same issue is going on here.
