Wow, has it always been like this? I thought it was because of the exchange diff between USD and CAD, but I checked and it’s currently 1:1.35-6. So if translating the $1599 USD cost to CAD, it should be $2,168.06 for iPhone Pro Max 1TB

They don't like changing their prices, so they add some on top of the current conversion.

Last year it was favourable to Canada because CAD dropped in Oct but they never rebalanced their prices.
