Another thing to keep in mind is that FedEx (and possibly UPS) automatically charge a brokerage fee for international packages, in addition to any customs duty that Canadian customs might charge. If I recall correctly, USPS only charges actual customs fees but no brokerage fees. Something to keep in mind when ordering from the US...
Thanks Dodo (and katzki) for the valuable information. I've heard about the UPS brokerage fees in the past, but not for Fedex. I will keep all this in mind when deciding on who to buy from, and on what type of delivery.
