What goes into the costs of shipping?

The relatively high shipping rates for items shipped from me are due to the rate agreements that Canada Post has with the USA and most other countries. (My remote location makes Canada Post the only economical carrier to use.)

I absorb a significant portion of the shipping and handling costs into my prices, with increasing amounts based on weight.

Canada—land of wide open spaces. Which means we pay a lot for shipping.
