Just a question here- what website do you use to print your shipping labels? I use ShipStation but was just curious as to what everybody else uses
stamps.com and a Zebra label printer - have had good luck for shipping eBay labels and labels for shipment to Canada.
I have it direct debit from my linked credit card at 25 USD per top-up - and then it maintains a credit balance for any overage beyond that which you need to ship any particular label. The shipping rates are just about the same as eBay shipping and it has the same tracking tools etc.How do you pay for the labels? Does it take it out of PayPal like eBay does or does it use your stamps.com account?

For what it's worth, I believe PayPal no longer supports shipping to Canada (at least that I'm aware of) and that's obviously a huge issue in trading/selling hockey cards.
Stamps.com seems to aggregate Canadian shipments (at least from NYC) in Northern NJ which can seem odd the first time as the label you print is actually a USPS domestic label to ship to NJ with USPS tracking.
The way this works is that the USPS label is replaced by stamps.com once it reaches the stamps.com warehouse at which point Canada Post/USPS tracking is added as the package leaves the stamps.com warehouse then goes to the relevant international shipment (for Northern NJ/NYC area, this is out of JFK airport and on to Canada.
Hope that helps!
