As for shipping labels, Canada Post usually puts the forms in a plastic bag and sticky wraps it onto the package

The triangular box is the way to go. This summer I went to ship a fly rod tube to a friend in Nova Scotia and Canada Post said they would have to charge a premium if it was in a round tube. The issue was that a tube would roll around and couldn't be read by an automatic bar code scanner and would have to be handled by hand at each sorting stage.
