Update on Canada Post

Well we have our mail back...  First 'mail' was delivered last tuesday...  Today I got a letter that was mailed in Eastport Maine.... It was mailed June 20...  As the crow flies Eastport is 8 miles  (12 km)  That letter moved less than .4 miles a day... I'm sure the crow could have got it here in 2 days!

Today I sent my mother a birthday present... bubble wrap envelope (approx 10 in * 10 in * 1 in) cost me $17.00 Express Post 3 day delivery... However since Canada Post is  still backlogged by the strike they are not guaranteeing the 3 day delivery... They had no problem taking my money for the service but it may still take the 10 days that normal parcel mail would.... !

I Want My Mail!

OK I try not to get political but I want my mail service back....Enough is enough.. It's quite obvious that neither the NDP nor the Liberals who are fighting to delay the back to work legislation  depend on the mail to receive their pay cheques!

As a self employed artist I am not receiving any money nor can I ship any orders!  Where I live Fedex is delivered by Canada POST... therefor FEDEX is not an option... then there is UPS... well they offload on Purolator... Guess what Purolator is owned by Canada Post....  What does that leave, not much that leaves any profit in the delivery.  I could have things bused to and from St George but that's at least a 90 minute return trip get to the bus depot and back....   & the bus only stops 3 times a week....
