I JUST spoke with Border services about this 2 days ago, and a senior supervisor there assured me that it wouldn't be a problem. In the documentation I read, the fumigation requirement seems to only apply to those moving to Canada as a temporary resident (which I'm doing), but he told me that I could just ignore it (no explanation, why, though, but he was pretty insistent). I am an American citizen, so perhaps it doesn't apply to us??
I suggest you call customs and border services yourself and ask - they're very helpful!
Good luck,
Katie
