UPS's main hub is in Kentucky.
The way I think it works is that, international parcels/packages would be sent to their main hub in Kentucky. The parcels/packages are then sorted and sent to smaller depots like the one at YVR.
Depending on the type of shipping you purchased, they may air ship to Canada, or in your case by truck. Don't worry I had to deal with the same shipping route when I ordered from Apple.

the customs work started in richmond before it even left hong kong but it kept going back and forth until it finally arrived

They don't ship door to door. They go thru hubs. Quote:
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
The Louisville, KY UPS World Hub is THE central hub and exchange for air deliveries throughout the continental US--most of our flights exchange there. Please remember that we use very large planes that typically do not land at large metro airports used by most people for traveling.
I live and work in central Florida and we get 2 flights per day out of Louisville for our entire district (more than 10 large buildings' worth of volume--equivalent to hundreds of UPS package car routes) all out of St. Pete-Clearwater Airport--a small auxilliary airport outside of Tampa.
Trust me--UPS has been in business more than 100 years and are the gurus of the logistics and transportation industry. No one does it more efficiently. UPS is still number 1. They do not waste money in operations, period.
Often, packages are routed to Louisville for processing because that center is hugely automated and it is cheaper to re-route through there than to pay fallable human labor to process the package on what may seem to you to be the more "direct" route. Just the facts, jack!
Your package is not lost. Keep an eye out for the guy and gal in brown.

same sorta thing happened to me too. with UPS too
shortshifter was being shipped to richmond from quebec. shipment lands in richmond depot. gets sent out for delivery in the morning @ 7am. i wait around all day for it, nothing. i call UPS at 6pm and inquire. they suggest i wait until 7pm, as that is when drivers deliver until
i wait until 7pm. still nothing. call again. UPS agent says sometimes drivers are late with their deliveries and deliver until 8pm. i'm like  so i wait til 8. nothing shows (but i could've told you that'd happen before i even started waiting after 7)
i call again. obviously nobody picks up because they're closed. i call and ask the next day, repeat above for the entire day. at this point i'm pissed, and i was being patient too. call again the NEXT day (2 days after my item has been scanned out for delivery) and they tell me my package is MISSING. i'm like "what the fuck?"
so the next day (3 days after) i call TWMperformance to get them to start a scan. long story short(er), my item was found..in calgary
in other words, my item was in a truck bound for delivery from richmond to richmond locations, and somehow ended up in calgary. to this day i do not know how the hell that is even possible

For some reason the tracking on the fedex website is not as detailed as the one on the yahoo site. FedEx Package Tracking Details - Yahoo! Small Business
