I would strongly recommend you use Fedex. I'm the USC so personally I don't have any experiences with CanadaPost, but I've read a bunch of bad ones here, including recently one couple whose visas are lost in the mail right now due to CanadaPost. I wouldn't chance it with them.

Now I'm having a debate with my fiance about Canada Post and FedEx!! Why do we have to use Canada Post if they're so unreliable when there's FedEx available??? And question 2 is why don't people use the next day delivery envelopes (canada post) for their visas at Montreal (if there's a reason we must use canada post)? Why do we have to wait up to 10 days for our visas when next day is available?

3/5/11 sent LOC paperwork

3/9/11 date of NOA

?/?/?? biometrics appointment

We did use the XpressPost envelope for Montreal to mail back the Visa, for us it was the Consulate that took forever to actually send the Visa...Ours took 14 days... Once Montreal actually sent it, it took 2 days to get to us....we did pay extra for it to be "signature required", wrote "signature required" on the return address and the postman crammed it into our box, and completely ignored the siganture required sticker... not a fan of Canada Post!
