canadian duty on alcohol
any first hand experiences on paying duty/customs on bringing alcohol over allowances on returning to canada?

I would caution you a little, but also we have declared extra with no duty too. From my experience, it depends on the wine you are bringing back too. I would think, if you have expensive bottles of wine that would cost much more in BC, they might make you pay. If you have cheap bottles of wine, save the purchase receipts, make it easy on them, and keep your extras within a small number. They will ask the value of the product you are bringing in. I have heard of a full case being passed, but you are also inviting a search to see if they can find more.
