Sending money to Canada?

I don't get why Western union charges $10 to send money to Pakistan, but to canada they charge $30. it's in sane.

anybody know any cheaper ways to send money?

Hmmm, I never knew that as normally it is always the other way around. People sending money from Canada to Pakistan.

Either way, it is only $20 bucks more with complete comfort/peace of mind.

Cheaper alternative would be hundi. Lots of places at Karachi. Normally run by Memons but a lot of trust is required on the sender's part.

Good luck.
