Toronto is close enough to the border to make it worthwhile to rent a US shipping address from someplace like a UPS store or similar independent store. I know a lot of Canadians who do this 'cuz it saves 'em a fortune in "international" shipping charges and customs brokerage fees that UPS charges...plus you get what you order a lot faster because it doesn't have to clear customs...YOU declare it if necessary when you bring it home.

A holding tank and a hoses are the last things you want to "cheap out" on...'cuz if you do, you'll be buying everything again after you've had to deal with odor and even spills. But that doesn't mean you have to pay top dollar either...at least not for the tank. As Parks said, Ronco Plastics Ronco Plastics Marine Catalog is your best source for a tank. They make TOP quality thick-walled water and waste tanks for a very reasonable price and have more than 400 shapes and sizes, over 100 of which are non-rectangular, and they install fittings in the sizes and locations specified by the customer when they make the tank.

Hoses are another matter...cheap sanitation hose will permeate and stink very quickly...you really don't want to not only buy 'em twice, but go through all it takes to replace 'em twice. The ones that remain odor free are expensive, but worth it 'cuz you'll only have to buy and install 'em once. Raritan SaniFlex Raritan SaniFlex hose would be your best bet. Parks will give you a good price on it.
