    Post, like several other services, should probably be considered an essential service that’s government-operated. Especially since there’s broad swathes of Canada that are absolutely unserviced by the likes of UPS or Amazon’s minions.

    I may be in the minority when I say that i want my bills and notices delivered in paper format. Email is absolutely not a secure nor guaranteed-delivery service, no matter what people think. Bill payment portals and email are 100% “out of sight, out of mind” for me. When there’s a piece of paper that I can write on when I deal with it, there’s less chance of missing things.

      Funny thing is, I live in a rural setting, ALL of the courier companies (including Amazon) will deliver to my house EXCEPT Canada Post.

        Not that rural if all the courier companies go out there.
