I agree with the folks recommending a mid drive bike. I have no experience with Bafang motors but do have a mountain bike with a Brose motor (made in Germany). That bike will climb almost anything within reason. I also have two hub drive bikes with claimed torque of 60 ft-lbs and 100 ft-lbs. I do not think either one would be as good a hill climber as the Brose equipped mid drive. My point is that the claimed torque ratings are often not helpful. Same goes for the wattage. The mid drive is ostensibly rated for 250 watts, while the two hub drives are 750 and 1000 watts.
My two hub drives are from Ride1Up out of San Diego California. Ride1Up now sells a mid drive bike with a Brose motor. It falls into your price range - its $2300 US, not sure of the Canadian cost. I am pretty sure they ship to CA but charge an extra $100 or so. Check it out.
