Hi!
I realize that this is an unusual question for this forum!
I'm moving back from Toronto to Melbourne and have only a few boxes of personal effects to take. Can anyone suggest a good company to ship with or a particularly cheap way to ship small amounts of stuff?
Thanks for any advice!

here is a link to a company that ships from some locations in canada to all over the world:
http://www.discount-shipping.net/?gclid=CL7zsPy075ECFQKzPAoduBwlwQ
Check out the small sea shipment section...it may be just what you need.
If they can't help you, maybe they can suggest another company that can help (aside from UPS or general postal services)
here is another link to a chat group in canada (aussies in canada), and one of those folks may also be able to lend a few ideas:

I hope you enjoyed your time away from australia, and hopefully, we'll get to hear more about your journey....

Also another great site is
http://www.yanksdownunder.net/
This is a site for folks that now live in Australia so I'm sure someone will be able to give you some real good help from there.
