Question on "Taxes and Fees" on United.com

I am searching for flights EWR-MBJ for 5 people for next March. The United website comes up with a fare and it indicates that the fare includes all taxes and fees. ("Fares listed are for the entire trip per person and include taxes and fees")

When I select the flights, it then adds up the fares for the 5 people AND ADDS >$700 in 'Additional Taxes and Fees'. This happens when I select that I am a Canadian resident.

If I select that I am a US resident, the fare is higher, but it does actually include all the taxes and fees and they are not added later.

What gives? Anyone else come across this issue?
