It will still be one of the cheaper free shipping thresholds in Canada, but Amazon quietly raised the amount you need to spend for free shipping without Prime to $35.
If you spend less than $35, shipping will cost over $4 depending on items and weight and lots of small items can really drive up the price on per-item shipping costs so if you order small stuff and do not spend $35 regularly, Prime may be worth it. You can see a full list of shipping costs here.
Amazon Prime is $79 per year and includes a 30 day free trial, so if you order very occasionally, it can be worth signing up and cancelling before your trial ends (which you can only do once).

It looks like we can get back to shopping online, ordering coupons and trading without worrying about possible job action at Canada Post. They have finally reached a tentative agreement with their biggest union ending the uncertainty of a strike over the summer and the possibility of job action lasting until the Christmas shopping season.
Details of the contracts are not yet available, but both sides seemed pleased in their announcement. This is however a two year agreement compared to their usual four year contracts so while we can hope they work on negotiations before 2018, we can likely expect another few months of uncertainty then too.
