Does my duty free allowance stack with other people in my car to Canada? - Armed police squad controlling street

I am planning to purchase a road bike in the United States rather than in Canada, since the price is around $400 cheaper (thanks to the 63%+ import tax on bicycles). Right now duty free is $200/person for 24-48 hours.

If I have three people in the car and they purchase nothing, will it count towards my bike being duty free?
