Mark Carney's attack on Canada Post is idiotic

Canada Post is doing fine, the parcel delivery era has them raking in the cash which they have to stuff under the mattress every time it's bargaining time.

Carney wants to stop door to door mail service and close rural post offices. This is an attack on the elderly, disabled, and even rural people like myself.

If you see a CUPW strike go buy them a coffee. They're fighting for our rights and theirs. A strong strike ends quickly.

Most of the mail we get these days comes in the form of advertising flyers, but I do prefer Canada Post for package shipments, especially from overseas as they do not automatically add on brokerage and import taxes like Fedex and those other shipping companies do.
Door to door mail delivery is needed for some people. Perhaps they could make home delivery a subscription option, or bring in a third party to do it for a small fee.
