Transport Canada will review your documents and forward to you a letter indicating you are cleared to import these articles. You must have a copy of this approval letter or you will not be allowed to bring these kit parts into the country. Once approval letter is received, you may make arrangements for the picking-up and/or shipping of your kit.

That means you have to deal directly with Canadian customs and transport officials.
