As of September 14, 2010, the exchange rate on the Canadian dollar is roughly $0.97 US. At that exchange rate, the pricing on the Dungeon Master's Kit should be $41, not $48. Hopefully Canadian retailers will not be forced to charge those exorbitant prices, and will get a break on the wholesale price from WoTC. Here's an even more extreme example.

At $35 Canadian, compared to $20 US, that's an exchange rate of $0.57, compared to the current $0.97. I trust this $35 Canadian price is just a typo, or a placeholder for the correct price.

I've noticed that some companies engage in profiteering on the exchange rate. Games Workshop has been bad for this in the past, charging Canadian prices far in excess of the exchange rate. I'm willing to bet that the prices you cite are neither typos, nor place-holders.
I stopped buying GW products for this very reason.
Don't they pass the difference on to your healthcare system? Heheheheh
Tch, tch, tch.
Yes, we do have an awesome health care system!
:D
