I have to say that the ONLY way that I ship from Canada to US is Canada Post and the ONLY way that I ship from US to Canada is US Post Service.

The UPS/FedEx/DHL's of the world often charge (often hidden/at delivery/etc) brokerage charges that end up costing even more than their crazy rates.

The only guys I have had luck with that are not the post office is Purolator in Canada to US but I don't know if that works going the other way to Canada.

I have also found that the PirateShip cost on USPS to be the best to Canada. One of the keys often is to use your own box (in other words, try the rate using the standard USPS box and then try it using your own box where you put in the dimensions and pick the cheapest one). And, obviously make the box as small as possible. And weigh it so you can put the exact weight in when you put in the dimensions. Things are usually lighter than you think they are (for some reason bike parts always weigh less than you think when you are shipping them and weigh more than you think when you put them on the bike).

Sorry I can't be more helpful, but if you find a better solution please let me know because it would be nice to find a cheaper way since I live in both countries and ship stuff to sides of the family from the wrong country all the time.
