Just remember that if you get them to send it via USPS Express
Mail, it's identical to UPS, etc. once it crosses the border. Purolator
delivers this, and doesn't even let you know there is a bill on the way
from a customs broker!
Everything else USPS seems to work okay, with Canada Post carrying
out delivery.
