The cost of getting this custom made will be much more than the cost of buying it retail.
My suggestion is to try shippsy - deliver to the US and they bring it to Toronto. Very modest fees + duty and hst.
If you do want something custom for lots more money, feel free to check out our work at junctioncarpentry.com
