Default Ammunitions Courier Questions

Hi I live North Eastern Ontario I retired and took up reloading about six years ago and want to thank you for your expertise on this forum.

I am down to 80 large rifle primers and have been checking the internet for any sales and found a few lately and what I found out about Couriers that will transport primers and powder and ammo the only one is UPS.
I have had problems in the past with this shipper on other items so I wanted to get this rectified and tried to contact UPS for more information all I get is a call centre and they want a tracking number or they can't help me.

So I checked for thier depots on the net and find one in Timmins so I drive 1.5 hrs and find the addres provide on the net and pull into a Can Par building and a small sign in the window saying UPS Depot.
They told me that CanPar is a third party shipper outsourced by UPS for Northern Ontario and CanPar is no longer allowed to ship ammo or its componets so if they get an order in they will make out an incedent report and send it back to UPS.
So I have no way of purchasing power and componets in Northern Ontario
because UPS does not really deliver here.
UPS only has thier own courier service in southern Ontario
I am a little upset at this cause I would have to drive to southern Ontario which is 9 Hours away and Higginson which is Ottawa way is 11 hours away.

Any one out in Western and northern Canada have the same issue?
