Unfortunately for you what everyone is saying is pretty much fact. Your best bet would be to sell the item to your friend or even see if its possible for a return. Long story short, due to the nature and appearance of airsoft guns they do fall under the replica clause regardless of FPS and the item will most likely be seized if you attempt to have it mailed across the border. The information is available on the Canadian border services website should you wish to review it yourself.

Best of luck sorting out your purchase.
