Will Canada Post end daily mail delivery?

Episode 1099 Published 1 year, 10 months ago
Description

The crown corporation is losing a ton of money, and the volume of mail it's delivering is dropping rapidly. Its annual report, released last week, hinted that major changes could be in store. That could include paring back mail delivery to every second or third day, which the corporation confirmed yesterday it was looking into.

What would ending daily mail delivery mean for Canadians? How many would notice, or care? But what about those among us—people and small businesses alike—who rely on timely, every day delivery of letters and packages? What does the future hold for Canada Post in an increasingly paperless world?

GUEST: Cormac Mac Sweeney, Parliament Hill reporter, CityNews
