Welcome to the Forums maerix!
MSRP is a starting point but discounts are common on all but the most in-demand units. I hear about discounts of 10% to 15% (and more for the aggressive shopper). There is a lot of markup on RVs. You should be able to shop several dealers to get some idea of who is more flexible. It is hard to buy the lowest price Airstream from a distant dealer if a closer dealer has a superior reputation for customer service.
It makes some sense that they'd discount a unit sitting on the lot. They should discount a unit ordered by at least the same amount -- a direct sale has minimal additional costs for them, and often less!
I ordered my 2006 25' FB SE in July 2005 before dealers were familiar with the model and how hot its sales would become. This is a high demand model and I hear it is hard to get discounts on it at all now!
I'm assuming your price comparisons include compensation for exchange rate. Used Airstreams can be imported to Canada. New? I think Canada has some electric code differences that have to be built in (ordered) before you can import new units. Not real sure there -- but something to check out.
