Probably just Messenger noise. As long as your firewall blocks it, I wouldn't worry too much.

That is of course possible, but since it is trivial (and common) to spoof the source IP in messenger spam UDP packets, Shaw Communications Inc., Shaw Cablesystems G.P., and/or their customers may actually be blameless here.

Test your firewall.
