No problem--I think they are slow to propagate the price correction throughout their various sites. I found a different page on their Canadian site with a price of CAD$38.50 .

Somehow, it looks as if the Farnell/Element14 sites are a nightmare to maintain from their side: every announcement like this goes "slowly" and with several different "problems" showing up during the day.
Last time the (the camera IIRC) was order-able in the UK but not here in the Netherlands. This time the "product page" was "not found" even though the product could be ordered by clicking "buy now" on the raspberry pi page, or by entering the order code into the shopping basket.
Another "mishap" this time: I ordered for EUR 33/piece or EUR 30 for 3+ but got a promotional Email claiming an EUR 26 price point!
From the first raspberry pi - goes - live event, I do remember something about "shipping costs are high in Canada". Apparently the "ship anywhere in the country" contract they have in Canada is more expensive than in the more densely populated USA or Netherlands. The foundation says: $35 (excl tax & shipping), but Farnell prices things "incl shipping", so they charge more in Canada. So I'd say it's possible it gets "fixed" (i.e. lowered) ... or not....
