It depends on what it is.

where it is made

how it is shipped

whether customs inspect it.

Small and well packaged, not suspicious box : will usually not be inspected.

 

If it's inspected, you will have to pay import duties:

 

for any imported item with declared value of more than 20$ :

tax (GST ou HST) + canada post fees of 9,95

 

under 20$ : no fees
