Has anyone got a recommendation for buying a Hitachi VFD and shipped to Canada?

Is this still the recommended model?  
Hitachi WJ200 Series WJ200-022SF

Thank you

Hi and thanks again.  
Yep, I saw that thread and have contacted the suppliers about shipping to Canada.  
Will wait and see if they respond.
