Hi Everyone,
I currently live in PA and have a fulltime job. However, I have just recently starting doing freelance website work for a company in Canada. I was wondering what the tax implications for the money earned from this work would be? I am usually paid through PayPal, but on larger jobs I am mailed a check. Anyone have any idea how taxation works on this? Do I just file a schedule-c and list this as additional income (under my dba), or something else? I assume I do have to report it in one way or another :) Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

It's taxed as self-employment income. File Schedule C or C-EZ with your return, along with Schedule SE.
How you get paid is irrelevant to the tax issues at hand. But do keep in mind that the US and Canada do share tax information on each others citizens.

Doesn't matter where the $ come from...you pay normal USA taxes. Just include the Canadian pay in with your USA pay on your tax forms! That's the legal way to do it.
Me, I would not list it at all.
