I received a minor edumacation from the local friendly postal clerk this morning. Apparently, the most cost effective (read...cheapest) way to send a small package to Canada from the US is via First Class Mail. My package of 1.2# totaled $12.50 or so. If you keep the weight under 13oz, you can use the Automated Postal Machine in the lobby to send - no need to stand in line. Sending a flat rate box (small) is in the neighborhood of $24 to $25.
Only down side of using First Class is that is the equivalent of losing a package in your car trunk, under all the tools, beach sand, groceries and kids toys. It will get there, but is kinda like the slow boat to Canada! :D
BTW, like to hear from our frozen brothers in Canada on shipping from there to the US...
