Canada Post considering ending daily mail delivery as financial woes continue 

Reducing service rather than reducing the fat at the top of the company, such a fine example of tax dollars pissed down the drain.

I think Canada at this point, delivers more junk than actual mail.

I have a small business through Etsy and live in a small community, I do rely on Canada Post. I do hope they do not cut back on daily mail delivery.

because you manage money bad doesnt mean you get to reduce an essential service , time for your employees to take a pay cut , I suggest starting at the top

Who will deliver mails to very remote areas with that price? This company need to be protected for public. Especially seniors like to receive mails not text or emails

So how much of a raise did the higher ups get, regardless of the company failing?

I don't see why 3 days a week would be an issue. Mon, Wed, Fri for some and Tues, Thurs, Saturday for others.

Recent facts: Management just got big bonuses. So Where did this money come from if the post office lost $750 Million this past year?

This country has gone backwards

Unbelievable!!! Who's stealing all the money?!

And whos still collecting a bonus if the company is struggling??

Oh Come On!!! That is crazy, lazy, and utterly ridiculous! We Canadians are not sacrificing Canada Post Delivery, ( a cornerstone, historical, staple, and essential Federal provision and function and responsibility), because of governmental negligence, corruption, laziness, ineptitude, and absolute mismanagement. Find the problems. Fix the problems.

OMG what next?This is really awful.

Yet UPS, FedEx, Loomis, all seem to make money.

I don't mind Canada Post as a parcel delivery option, and will chose it when I can for the primary reason that it has access to my mail room. The number of times that I get someone delivering a package that cannot get into my secure apartment building is frustrating, where Canada Post not only has access to the mail room, but have a parcel mailbox, that they leave the key for the door with your parcel in your mailbox, so no one takes it.

Centralization sorting of mail is driving the cost of mail delivery up. I send a letter to a community 36 miles north of me. It then goes from my community to Vancouver, almost 260 miles to the south, then sent back to the town to the north another 296 miles. That’s ridiculous in my most humble opinion.

Incompetence!?

I love there Parcel service. I get such wonderful service!! Makes Me Sad😢

Big deal. I haven't gotten mail on a Friday for as long as I can remember. The last time something was shipped to my house 'priority' for a bunch of money and most importantly requiring a signature they DIDN'T EVEN TRY TO DELIVER IT. When my package arrived at the local depot, they instantly changed the delivery status and instead of delivering it as sold to earn the huge fees they simply put a card in my mailbox telling me I had to go hunt it down myself at the local London Drugs PO. Rain, sleet or snow my ass. Primarily quite useless.

Hell no! I need it for package!

My neighbour’s mail comes to my house, so I deliver his mail to him (even though his address is clearly on his mail). I mean: if a company cannot deliver the mail to the correct address, I don’t know what C/Post’s purpose is.

Unfortunately the usual for a crown corporation: Overpriced labour, beaurocrats making bank at the top, terrible and unreliable service.

Loved our mailman back in the day Gave cold drink on hot days and treats once in a while

Plenty of money for wars.

My experience with Canada Post: They leave a notice that they attempted to deliver your parcel... except they didn't attempt, they already have the little tag made up that says they "attempted to deliver", so you have to go pick up your parcel. My other favorite is half the carriers "do not carry a signature capture device" - Once upon a time this was called a Pen. Now apparently they have a special tablet device and not all postal carriers carry, and so once again they leave you a notice saying "Hey, you gotta make your way across town to this non-airconditioned hut and stand in line"... Sorry, not sorry Canada Post. You should be doing better, I have no issues with competitor deliveries - Only Canada Post. Technology is no guarantee of innovation. Get your act together or get replaced. If you were a private company you'd be out of business.

How much was the CEO's bonus?

The cost of mailing a parcel is getting ridiculous,that is why I stopped using them.

Canada Post has delivered sub par service for decades. You pay for fast delivery…maybe you get it, probably you won’t. It’s time for Canadians to demand better service from Canada Post, Air Canada, and others. Even if it means suing them for breach of contract.

Canada post is too expensive to start with. I would love to send some parcels but everytime I see the price... I close the website lol.

the cost to mail a standard letter in Canada has more than doubled since 2006.

I check my mail everyday. I order a lot of stuff online. I don't want my mail and packages to slow down.

Only the government could lose money on this mismanaged business

I can mail delivered faster from another province. Almost 5 days for delivery in the same city

I get maybe FIVE pieces of mail per month and that is to keep the assorted Corporations above board and not over charging me electronically.

Canada Post screwed up my package delivery today. Maybe if they smarten up.

Canada Post have to be up to date with services , as well as service ontario , health care service ! Canada is stuck in 50s !

Daily mail is very important for businesses!!

If we late for payments, I hope Canada Post will pay the dues 😂😂😂😂

Delivering mail is a basic function of any country. Are we living in a banana Republic or what? This is what we are paying our taxes for! Instead of putting billions for battery plants, how about funding the basics like health, mail, education, roads etc.

I sent a registered letter to USA for guaranteed 4 day delivery. It got there 12 days later and the person was not asked to even sign

Ive had other courier companies deliver my stuff lots lately

I'd be okay with once or twice a week, all I get is bills and junk mail anyway.

Delivering packages makes more money💰 💸

Fk o I get all my bills and bank stuff won't go on line stuff it

Check every day

Canada Post is the absolute worst at parcel delivery. Sure they move it across the county or city to city but they rarely deliver to your door/mailbox. It's a roll of the dice whether the postal worker delivers the package or just drops a notice for you to drive somewhere, maybe miles away to pick up the parcel. Plus they ticket it as "attempted delivery" when they clearly did not. Don't blame competition on your loss, all you have to do is look at your workforce.... no sympathy for the corporation or workers that have caused this.

what Canada Post needs ia a cost-effective way to ship online orders with trackign so we as Canadians can compete with Amazon and American resellers.

Keep daily mail for all Canadians..

I mean they gonna do 3 times a week, next year we gonna do once a week, so what are they gonna do to stop the bleeding if all else fails.

Nothing like being forced online and Ai.

Cut the top brass! Bonuses should not be happening either! How a wage cut for everyone there?

I minimize my mail simply because it goes missing or I get other people's mail. Postal workers in my area just do not care about quality. Christmas is pretty much the only time for letters and cards.

Canada post needs to cut from the top Salaries and bonuses are out of control ! Also way too many management positions !

Another way to isolate and disadvantage the elderly and disabled, who rely on and enjoy mail

Lol Canadians just can't get a break, another slap in the face from the feds

My son doesn't use the mail because he has to cross three busy streets to get to his mail box.

We all need are mail .

you get more junk mail then real mail as carriers are paid to deliver the junk mail so extra cash

Oh Canada!

I'm Really Not Loolikg Forward to the Day If or When All Snail or Paper Mail are No Longer a Thing as my Parents and Others Like Them Rely on Paper Mail for Various Reasons..

i check my mail everyday

Greetings from oakville where we the town utilized the community mailbox 14 years ago and we check it three days a week and my folks are seniors so any changes will be very disappointing

I don't think the numbers are that bad. If you divide the loss by the number of years, then divide by the population of Canada, Then divide by 365 for the number of days in a year. It works out to a very small amount to pay for the service. Canada Post services all of Canada, no matter how remote. It faces competition from large American parcel companies taking the gravy routes. We are lucky to have Canada Post. Too bad the rest of the government is so poorly managed. Maybe we could get some large American Companies to manage the finances of the Canadian Government.

They might as well. All I get is junk mail and flyers. Who still gets bills by mail?

So many complaints here! I get excellent service from CP here at my rural, dead-end gravel road location here in NS.

Oh No!

You can't compete if your competitors don't have to deliver regular mail.

I don't even get daily mail anymore, Canada post only delivers 3 times a week

Charging 28$ for a small parcels isn’t enough huh?

So I won't be getting notices on my door saying that I wasn't home when I was home all day waiting for my package? That sounds just terrible. I really enjoyed waiting at my front door for the postal worker to stop by with the notice so that I could ask for my package instead :(

Canada Post spends 34 Billion on management. Management got their bonuses including danger pay. With 784 million dollar loss how much was caused by bonuses? Also Canada Post always cries poor during negotiations. Last time they lied and said we couldn’t deliver Christmas gifts on time, yet the bonuses for them didn’t stop.

93% of what arrives in my mailbox are unwanted flyers. Very few pieces of real correspondence.

That will be a disaster for their package delivery service. Who would ship via Canada Post when they only deliver occasionally?

Maybe raise the fees for junk mail?

I believe that mail delivery has already been reduced in our neighborhood. We normally can only expect mail on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday in our community mailbox.

I am quite certain Pitch forks and Torches are still legal

Mail is so important in rural areas. Cut down on city service to twice a week and no one will bat an eye.

I work at Canada post as an on call worker. Haven’t gotten a shift in almost 3 months now. And now they want to cut hours of everyone just for their corporate greed. The digital age does have a role in this, but even with checks and bills going paperless, there’s still a lot of work which gets done each day by postal workers.

I love my mail delivery. 😢

Canada post services for both mail and parcel delivery is very reliable. Yes, they give you a card to pickup up your parcel when you are not home or if there is no safe place to drop off at your door. I have had a Amazon delivery guy ask me for $10 as a tip to place a parcel in my front porch which is a enclosed safe area.😮

You need to get on the ball

What are the postal workers who deliver the mail supposed to do ? That would lead to unemployment!! More strain on the country.

All junk and spam mail....

so go from 5 days a week till 3 boom 40% savings the issue will be is the unions will object and want to get paid

How do you email mail ?

Thank you.

COVID Rammed down my throat ( sorry ) I learned to get mail ONCE A WEEK

It is not necessary to recieve mail every day. In the country we picked up mail once a week.

The cost to mail a letter is to high, Canada Post owns Purolator and maybe they could get more contracts to deliver all those parcels. I only get real mail once a week at most.

Let me guess, they will cut delivery and give raises to higher up fat cats

I order a lot of packages... Canada post is the only one that when I see they are delivering...I say oh great... wonder when in two weeks I'll get that... and that is coming from only a couple provinces over. Everyone else..2 to 3 days. They are incompetent and slow and so not deliver on the weekends. This is where they are lacking. Fix the problem of weekend delivery.. cut the major players paychecks at the top that do literally nothin (that's an obvious considering the predicament they are in) and so something that no one has done before... come up with new ideas. Seems anytime you get GOVT involved this happens. NBPOWER and Canada post both are "Clown Crown" corps... both losing money but using OURS to pay the higher ups padded salaries for doing a bad job at managing.. any other job they would have been fired years ago..go figure

My mail-lady arrives in a Canada Post van to deliver mail on our street. Back in the day they used to ride four in a taxi and pick up the mail to be delivered from central neighbourhood boxes. Why do they now need a fleet of vans to deliver the mail?

United States is a great postal we get our medicine don't shut it down you need it daily you need mail coming in

I still need the mail delivered daily this is silly

I know of a Postal employee that can get his route done by lunch time, not sure what he does afterwards, but that is Union for you.🤔..😂

I don't know if it's true but I heard Canada Post declined helping Amazon. Big mistake.

They legit just went on a decent hiring spree

I don’t know what they’re talking about? Here in my home We get once a week and that is being few years already.🧐

What's Amazon going to do? They're always promising delivery "tomorrow."

No more mail needed, cut down to twice a week at most, just for bills… Canada Post should have focused more online delivery, but we see Amazon/UPS trucks instead….
