I recently had to ship 2 virtually identical items (same size shipping box and weight, about 28 lbs) to the same state (Mass). One (Fed-Ex)was to a mid-sized city, my discounted cost was $29.85 and it arrived in 3 business days. The other was to a rural area, just 70 miles from the other location, customer had just a P.O Box so I had to send it via Canada Post, my cost was approx $40, I had to haul it to the Post Office myself, shipped Expedited and it took, (get ready for this) 9 days. 6 business days.
When I phoned CP I was told that Expedited was basically a fancy-schmancy name for economy and there is no guaranteed delivery time. Just a suggested average. And they wonder why I rarely give CP any of my business, unless I absolutely have to. To their credit, I ship small packet air 4 or so times a month as, no other service can match it on price. Otherwise, sorry Charlie, I want Tuna that tastes good, not one with good taste. 🙂
