Sending a gift basket to Southern Ontario from Quebec
A buyer in Quebec, a recipient in Southern Ontario. The basket is built to order and sent by weekday courier — a domestic order like any other, just further along the same road.
Delivery timing for a Quebec buyer
The store keeps Eastern time, so the deadline needs converting: an order in by 2:00 p.m. Eastern on a weekday leaves that day and arrives within one to three business days. As of September 21, 2026, in your clock:
| Your time zone | Courier cut-off (2:00 p.m. Eastern, weekdays) |
|---|---|
| Eastern (nearly all of Quebec) (EDT) | 2:00 p.m. |
| Atlantic (the Magdalen Islands) (ADT) | 3:00 p.m. |
Today on this device, the 2:00 p.m. Eastern cut-off is — (your device's time zone: —).
Deliveries run on business days only — homes typically by the end of the day, workplaces in business hours. No deliveries at weekends or on Oct 12, Dec 25, Dec 26, Jan 1.
Will it get there, and when?
Use the recipient's Ontario postal code here, never your own. The result is the store's real answer for that address, with the courier's estimate.

What changes between Quebec and Ontario
Because the gift is delivered in Ontario, Ontario's rules apply — to the sales tax on the order and to who may accept a bottle at the door — whatever applies at home in Quebec.
HSTThe order carries 13% HST because the delivery is in Ontario — a different figure from the 5% GST + 9.975% QST charged in Quebec.
Gifts with a bottleDelivered only to a person aged 19+ (Ontario's age; at home in Quebec it's 18), who shows photo ID.
What delivery costsNothing on orders over $100. Below that, checkout shows the charge for that postal code.
The recipient's phoneGoes in the delivery fields — the courier calls the recipient, never the buyer.
The card in the basketYour words, your name — the recipient sees who sent it.

How Quebec's orders to Ontario look
Where Quebec's Ontario deliveries land: 42% to Hamilton, 4% to Brantford and 4% to Ancaster. Half of Quebec orders sit under the $115 median. December carries 35% of the year's orders. Workplace deliveries make up 38% of Quebec's gifts, compared with 15% across all of the store's Canadian senders.
The numbers describe Quebec's orders as a group; no gift has enough of them to be ranked, so the store's leaders carry the grid. Figures are shares of orders paid for in Quebec and delivered in Ontario, 2023 to today; the median is the middle order, not an average.
Tracking, support and the age rule
Tracking the delivery
Check the Order Tracker with the email address you ordered with and the postal code on the order: it reports the order's progress as the courier updates it.
Talking to support
Reach support at (905) 667-3660 or through the store's support widget, on Eastern time.
Alcohol at the door
Ontario's rule applies at the door: a gift with alcohol goes only to someone 19+ who shows photo ID. Gifts without alcohol need no signature.
