I have always manually processed international orders. Only because it has been an uphill battle to get the website to charge customers remotely accurate shipping costs. Its rather common for me to have to partially refund if the site overcharged too much, or occasionally it undercharges. Usually it overcharges.
So.. I have just activated Canada, and told it to activate the USPS flat rate boxes.
I have no idea what to expect! Let me know if its reasonable or not.
I ask everyone to please understand that us vendors have to deal with these automated shipping quote calculators built into the webstore applications. So if a website is trying to overcharge you on shipping, its usually not the vendors intention for that to be happening... its usually the shipping calculator acting up. The settings for it get rather complicated as you add international, multiple options... and especially if people start putting more than one object in the cart... then they just start going wild because they have a hard time deciding on their own what size / weight the package will become.
