The review gives price as one factor favouring the D70, saying that
the 350D body is 100 canadian dollars more expensive than the D70 as
recommended retail price.

This seems to vary considerably betteen markets. Cyberphoto, the most
reputable Swedish online camera store, quotes the D70 at SEK 6376, and
the 350D at SEK 6396. Dustin, another online store, quotes both the
D70 and the 350D at SEK 6396 The price differential in Cyberphoto's
case, SEK 20, amounts to CAD 3:59, and it is thus fair to argue that
the cameras are marketed at an essentially equal price for the Swedish
market.

So far, I've seen the following in Montreal (all an CAD, add 15% taxes):
Digital Rebel + 18-55 969$
D70 Body 999$
Digital Rebel XT body 1149$
Digital Rebel XT + 18-55 1299$

I paid around 1200$ for my Rebel D kit year ago.
Not too bad compared to the D70. Its price dropped 500$ within a year...
