As a Canadian the only service that makes any sense at all is USPS!
Brokerage fees by FedEx and UPS are incredibly high! I have no idea how DHL handles brokerage fees.
Some items from HS are just not worth the cost or hassle if they can not be sent via USPS.
This is especially true if you want/need items to be shipped to a post office box. UPS and FedEx won't allow shipping to a post office box so items coming via them mean wasting a whole day waiting for them to arrive, or making a very long drive right across to the other side of the city to pick it up myself.
Both FedEx and UPS have been known to leave a package outside my apartment door where anyone walking by could pick it up and walk off with it!
USPS/CanadaPost make things so much easier, and a heck of a lot cheaper (no brokerage fees) than either UPS or FedEx and presumably DHL.
My vote: USPS
