Don't know but you can probably start at http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/safevehicles-importation-index-443.htm.
The irony is that the Rav4 EV is supposedly built in Canada (http://pressroom.toyota.com/releases/toyota+tesla+build+rav4+ev+woodstock+ontario.htm).
I think the other issue to worry about is service and the US warranty (e.g. whether you have to jump thru hoops if you have warranty and/or recall work done in Canada).

Canada is kind of a big place. You might have to bring it to the USA for some warranty work.
Where exactly in the Great White North?
Last stop would be vancouver but it would have to have a layover in Washington to claim us federal credits. I bumped into a Tesla owner last night and he mentioned they were building a service center in Vancouver. That would might make servicing easier. I do have to admit that I was drooling over the Model S and am considering saving my pennies for one.

It'll never work!
Canadian electrons are incompatible with US batteries. They orbit the nucleus the wrong way, have different shape and size, and have accents.
Seriously, it's a shame a Canadian built car isn't available in Canada.
But the Rav4 EV isn't the greatest Canadian product ever built... This is!
