I think the key phrase above is *USPS "Global Express"*. It would make
sense for the USPS to outsource 'expedited' packages through a set-up
specifically designed to handle that traffic. However, regular USPS air
or surface mail is handled between the USPS and Canada Post. It may take
a few days longer to receive the goods but I find it for more cost
effective.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER use any special handling options unless it is
absolutely necessary. Surface mail here in the "Frozen North" will in
all probability take ten percent longer to reach it's destination, at
half the cost as air mail.
