Unreliable Mail System

I'm moving into a new place and I have to mail my rent checks to my landlord in Canada. Wouldn't you know, I'm getting ready to mail my first rent check for July and I find that my landlord still hasn't received the signed lease or the security deposit I sent a week ago, and then I find out that right after I sent those USPS suspended all mail to Canada with the exception of Global Express Guaranteed due to Canada Post being on strike: http://www.usps.com/communications/newsroom/2011/pr11_073.htm

Now that I remember the Canadian film "Strange Brew", it's obvious that I should have just mailed my lease via FedEx or UPS instead.
