Yep. For hardware, you might consider one of two kits:
If you need something that looks like a cigarette, consider a Volt or other KR808D-1 kit. Because it's a smaller e-cigarette, the battery life isn't great. A Personal Charging Case (PCC) helps. I like the KR808D-1 XL PCC. The batteries come in automatic and manual. The automatic battery is more like smoking, you just inhale to start vaping. But, the automatic batteries are unsealed. They have a hole in them. Do not get juice or water in the hole or you might kill your battery. The manual battery doesn't have that hole, which makes it a little more robust. With the manual battery, you hold down a button while you're inhaling. They perform the same as an automatic battery, but the draw is slightly easier. You usually get two batteries in a kit. I would recommend you consider getting an extra battery with your purchase as a backup. I would also recommend you consider making at least one of your batteries a manual. The batteries come in 3 different lengths. The longest battery gives you more battery life. You can get a Volt in Canada from BestVapour.com. CdnVapor.ca sells a similar KR808D-1 kit.
If you are ok with an e-cigarette that's a little bigger, you might consider the eGo. The battery life is way better than the Volt/KR808D-1. I would recommend it over my first suggestion. Actually, you'll find there's an eGo-T and a regular eGo. Lots of people like the eGo-T, but some people have a lot of problems with leaks. You might consider starting with the regular eGo, instead. It works well with cartomizers you purchase separately. For cartomizers, I would suggest the SmokTech dual coil or the Boge LR cartomizers. If you end up going with the Ego-T, I would suggest you consider the Low-Resistance tank atomizers instead of the regular ones (which don't give you much flavour). If you have the choice between regular eGo batteries (whether you go with an eGo or eGo-T), consider getting the eGo-T batteries. They have a 5-click shutoff in them that's handy if you're putting your e-cigarette in your pocket. You can get a customized eGo/eGo-T kit from NicFitNation.com. You can also get a nice eGo kit (with optional eGo-T batteries) from HappyVaper.com. If you go with HappyVaper, I would suggest you consider XpressPost shipping for faster delivery. NicFitNation is in Gibsons, BC and charges a flat rate of $8.00 for XpressPost.
You want to get in 5 good, non-spammy posts, wait for moderator approval, then head on over to the Canada forum for more suggestions.

You have several good Canadian vendors, as well as a lot of US vendors will ship to Canada ! Some items are being stopped, but most are still getting through.

Wow thanks for the detailed reply, much appreciated! Does anyone know if there are actual storefronts where you can buy this stuff? It seems like it's all internet mail order but I wouldn't mind being able to actually check some of this stuff out before I drop a bunch of money on it. Particularly in and around the Vancouver BC area?

Yeah. In addition to the Health Canada problem, there's also a troll copying info to an anti-ecigarette website. (Apparently, he's a vendor having trouble with sales who turned troll). But if you generate 5 good posts, you can hop over to the Canada forum and somebody can PM you with info on getting started.
