Canada Post just SUCKS. I bought a WS 58 from a guy in Quebec. He shipped it, with tracking and insurance. It never showed up.  They 'tracked' it as far as the postal counter it was mailed from!  Useless !!

I then contacted the Postmaster General and her boss, the minister 'responsible' for Canada Post. Nothing but lame excuses.  And even that took three months. The guy got paid back, not for what he sold it to me for, but HIS COST for the item.

I have no money, no radio. I HOPE the stinking minister lost his seat in the last election.

BTW, don't even THINK about shipping via UPS. It's worse !!
