DISCLAIMER: I'm not a lawyer and I'm not your lawyer.

I presume you mean due to restrictions on cryptographic software.

My understanding is that even during the bad old days when ITAR
(International Traffic in Arms Regulations) restricted anything with over a
56 bit key as a weapon of war that we had a special relationship with Canada
and that crypto items could be exported there.

An old webpage from 1995:
http://www.ieee-security.org/Cipher/ConfReports/CryptoLawSurvey.html

This site indicates that export to Canada was OK but that re-exporting from
Canada to a third country was illegal.

The restrictions have eased significantly since the mid 90s when this was
written.

In short: I wouldn't worry too hard if I were exporting to Canada, but your
millage may vary.
