Research peptides in Quebec
Quebec is a long domestic leg from Alberta, and the province with the most distinctive tax setup in the country. Nothing about a Quebec order crosses a border: the parcel travels inside Canada from the warehouse to the door.
Lux BioPure is a Canadian research-materials business. We hold stock in our own warehouse in Alberta, send every batch to an outside lab before it goes on sale, and publish the certificate that lab writes. Everything below is about how an order reaches Quebec: what it costs to ship, what happens with tax, and how long the carrier quotes. Everything we sell is supplied for laboratory research use only.
How orders reach Quebec
Montreal, Quebec City, Laval, Gatineau and Sherbrooke are major urban centres and fall in our standard 2 to 9 business day band. The Gaspé, the Lower North Shore and the far northern communities are non-major destinations and belong to the up-to-13 business day band.
Shipping is a flat $20 anywhere in Canada and free once your order passes $140 after any discount. Orders usually leave within 48 hours, Monday to Friday, apart from statutory holidays, and the tracking number is emailed to you when the parcel goes out. Delivery estimates are the carrier's, not a promise from us, and they leave out the mailing day, weekends and statutory holidays.
- Quebec is two time zones ahead of the warehouse, so a late-afternoon order in Montreal is still mid-afternoon Mountain Time when it reaches us.
- Quebec is the only province whose sales tax is administered by its own revenue agency rather than by the Canada Revenue Agency.
- Our order and shipping emails are written in English only, which is worth knowing before you order if you would rather have French.
Sales tax on an order delivered to Quebec
Quebec runs its own provincial tax alongside the federal one. The Canada Revenue Agency applies 5% GST, and the Quebec sales tax adds 9.975% on taxable goods delivered there, administered provincially by Revenu Québec rather than by the CRA.
That is the general rule for goods delivered there, and it is not what this store charges. No sales tax is added at checkout, so the price plus shipping is what you pay. Prices are in Canadian dollars, and payment is by Interac e-Transfer: you place the order, then we email you the address to send the transfer to and the amount, which is the total you already saw at checkout.
Tested before it ships
Batches go to an independent lab, submitted blind, and the lab measures two things with HPLC, a standard method that separates what is in a sample so each part can be measured: how pure the material is, and how much peptide the vial holds. Those numbers are published per batch, and the lot printed on the vial appears on the certificate, so you can match the paperwork to the thing in your hand. Read the published lab reports.
What ships to Quebec
The whole catalog ships to Quebec. Each page carries the vial size, the price in Canadian dollars, the pack options and the certificate for the batch on the shelf.
