Paragon is a good place to buy from. I have had good service and they are in Canada. carries the DLE and CRRC which I have.
http://www.prcmodel.com/modeng/name/onlinestore/category/66 Also their prices are good, and you can deal with him. I got shipping for 6 dollars and had a price reduction. So when you talk to him, try and get a better price.

You can buy the DLE engines from Canadian distributors for probably about the same price... Buying from Troy Built Models and having them shipped to a Canadian address will come with 60-80$ in UPS charges, they will not ship any other method as far as I recall.

I have had good experience with Azure Hobbies (http://www.azurehobbies.com/index.php?cPath=21), and they carry the DLE model engines. Talk him down in price and mention where you can get it cheaper (e.g. TBM), I am sure he will cut his price, particularly since there is no excuse for $100 difference in price when CAD is worth 2 cents more.

Another note:

Azure says there is a v2 DLE, where as TBM doesn't specify, there price is $269.00 USD, vs. $329.99 from Azure.

Another comment, the smaller gas engines are not that much lighter than a 50cc and you will find there are a lot less airframe choices in the below 50cc form factor...

Ask Kevin...

I.m with Greg. Azure will give you good advice and good service. Shipping within Canada include in the price.

The V2 version, I think is a better electronic ignition. Also with Paragon, you can bargain with him. Also good advice and service. I met him at the Kingston IMAA fun fly. He is one of the sponsors there. He will match or beat anyone. I think he is near Toronto.

Si tu achète a longueuil il faut payer la TVQ par contre. A voir si plus que le shipping?
