Hi there! Has anyone any news about the Postal Strike in Canada? I know the last time this happened someone in the group worked for Canada Post and kept us informed. I have people asking about their packages that shipped out to Canada before the strike started. Thanks! -Susie
The strike is ongoing, and there’s not a lot of information in the news. I’m checking every day and can let you know when anything changes. My husband works for Customs and has friends at Postal, so he hears things sometimes. With previous strikes, Canada Post has been legislated back to work, but because we have a minority government right now, it looks like that’s not possible (the official opposition has said they won’t support back-to-work legislation). So it may be a while. I’m waiting on my PYO Swap piece, a package from the factory, a package from another collector, and I have 2 other people holding pieces I’ve bought from them until the strike is over. The backlog will be massive. I also live in a very small town and do most of my Christmas shopping online. 😠Nothing is moving at all except for benefit cheques (it’s a full strike as opposed to a rolling strike). 😱 Sorry it’s not better news.

We also have two packages that were supposed to arrive the day the strike started so we are still waiting on them. Today we had to ship a box out with UPS. We also live in a small town and usually order things online so I hope it gets resolved soon.
