I would just steer clear of UPS period. See if you can get your items shipped via USPS as they include the brokerage fees in the shipping price. UPS is a total rip-off when shipping to or from Canada. I've also had far more bad experiences with shipping damage with UPS than any other carrier.
Just my $0.02
