If I go to Canada and fly a Canadian registered plane, can I fly it in
Canada on my US license? Can I bring it back into the US (say I buy
it), can I fly it in the US? Anyone have any experience with getting a
Canadian registered plane registered in the US? I suspect it is quite
hard now, especially with the beef embargo, wood embargo and general
uptight trade with Canada,

So much for NAFTA, huh? Unless that was supposed to stand for No
Actual Free Trade Agreement...

I don't think you'll have a problem; I know that just last week our flying
club sold our Tampico to a guy from Florida, who flew it home. (Cool
trip!) It left here still wearing it's Canadian reg, and will get
N-numbers in Florida.

Phone a Canadian flight school & ask them, or phone Transport Canada
directly. Transport's got half a dozen regional offices across the
country; if you can't find info on the internet email me privately and
I'll get a number from the AIP.
