it is the law. if you import cigars to Canada you must pay duty and excise tax. the range is anywhere upto and including 200% of the value of the cigars.

refusing the cigars because they got caught by customs

as with most things, its a numbers game. if your package is the one that gets inspected, you pay duty. 99 times out of 100, your package is not picked.
I didn't order it, it was a prize in a contest. No way I'm paying double + what they are worth on a box I can get anytime I like for a lot less.
They get enough taxes from me as it is.
