It shouldnt, its the cbsa file and its just a standard fine for undeclared products...not a big deal! kindda like bringing more than $10000 cash across the border you will get fined for that and thats about it...only next time you cross the border the cbsa officer might ask to search your luggage cuz of whats on your file! relax you are fine.
unless that is your are into smuggling large amounts of cigarettes :p
