And subsidized shipping.  It is often cheaper to mail from China or Hong
Kong than from within Toronto.

When someone pays for international mail, the country that has to deliver it receives nothing.  This means China can set a low fee for that mail and Canada gets to pay for the delivery.

I've also had DHL be faster from China than Canada Post's fastest
service can make it across Toronto.

I recently received a parcel from Hong Kong via DHL.  It took just over a week.
