i know it can be bad, but to be honest my issues have been with customs and the canada food inspection agency, not with canada post. Still it's awfully nice to see a man at my door "I have a big package for..." (hmm maybe wrong place to post eh
). No serriously I expect to pay more for shipping, but the combination of USPS and Canada post seems to work better than any other and is cheaper. Insurance also isn't that much and USPS tracking actually works. SO you know when your stuff has hit customs.
