Possible Canada distribution

I know I am asking for a lot, but is there anyway there can be any local Canadian distribution or have alternate cheaper shipping methods? As much as I love to make purchases on this site, even though I made the purchase on the cheapest shipping method, the currency conversion and taxes is making me foot $150 for 3 books and it's really turning me off to make a second purchase. We're just above the border so hopefully an alternative can be found.
