If you saw someone outside with a thin short-sleeved t-shirt at -12°C this morning, that was me running after a #Purolator truck that just showed up to say "Failed Delivery Attempt".
Me, catching the guy in his truck: "Hi, you tried delivering at ****…"
Them: "Yeah, intercom doesn't work" (there's a big paper sign on it that says so!)
Me: "Why didn't you call the phone number on the package?"
Them: "I don't have a phone"
I hate private sector couriers.
I never have issues with #CanadaPost. -

I like the proposition to combine post delivery workers with social work to check if old citizens are ok. Like a front line of health and social workers!
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-post-strike-government-reforms-1.7644025
But really, with the number of Amazon deliveries, don't tell me that delivering mail directly to our door everyday isn't doable!

Canada Post personnel is on strike as of 2025-09-25 17:33 EDT.

Canada Post employees better take the deal. The company is losing money and others in Canada are not even getting raises right now. Be thankful for the job you have. The company made you a stronger offer than most Canadians think you should get. We don't need home delivery you know! Id be happy with a box at a depot. Most of you can go if that happens so think wisely folks. No support from the public here.

I don't remember which magazine it is, but I came across a call for submissions which only accepts stories through snail mail (odd). I guess they won't be publishing anyone from Canada. #WritingCommunity #CanadaPost #PostalStrike

So, in one fell swoop, it seems from my vantage point that the #CUPW did what the banks have been trying to do for the last decade: they’ve convinced a staggering number of Canadian business to give up on cheques (and #CanadaPost) and move into the world of secure, and often instant, electronic payment.

Postal workers in Canada are on strike!
The post office is an essential service, and the workers who provide that service have good jobs because of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. Postal jobs should remain good jobs!

"There has to be a way to make Canada Post viable. It's a very important service for many Canadians and many small businesses," said Stephanie Ross, a Bathurst native and associate professor of labour relations at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ont.
CUT. THE SALARIES. OF THE CANADA POST TOP BRASS.
How fucking hard is it???
Why is the CEO of Canada Post making over $400,000 A YEAR? WHY IS THAT NECESSARY?
15 VICE PRESIDENTS GET 300k EACH??? A YEAR??????
This is severe fund mismanagement if I've ever seen it.

(As for where the numbers came from, I really don't know, but I have to imagine it's public information in some capacity).

Purolator is majority-owned by Canada Post, so this isn't entirely surprising...

#CanadaPost workers are on #strike after failing to reach a negotiated agreement with their employer.
#Canadian #Union of #PostalWorkers says approximately 55,000 workers are striking, claiming little progress has been made in the bargaining process.
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers issued a 72-hour strike notice earlier in the week, saying it's been asking for fair wages, safer working conditions and other improvements over nearly a year of bargaining.
"We still believe we can achieve negotiated collective agreements, but Canada Post must be willing to resolve our new and outstanding issues," the union said in a statement.

Okay it's long time for a #CanadianKvetches ...
Why the heck are package deliveries in Canada so difficult?
#CanadaPost is not great. They're slow, and they lie about making delivery attempts. Just today they claimed to have tried to deliver a package but no one was there. I've been waiting by the door all day. It never happened.
#Purolator is the worst shipping company I've ever seen. If someone uses Purolator to deliver a package to me, it's always a problem- always.
Amazon seems to use a company called #Intelcom and they somehow are worse than Purolator. They actively lie, claiming they delivered packages, then delivering them the next day, or sometimes not at all. I don't think Intelcom is a real shipping company. I think they're just an outsourced Amazon delivery company, or they'd rank worse than Purolator.
I live in a major city (Vancouver), so this should not be an issue, and UPS Canada and FedEx Canada are fine. I don't know why package delivery is so bad here...

So earlier this evening, my partner got a notification that a #package had been delivered to our #CanadaPost #community #mailbox -- i.e. in a separate delivery from the usual mail during the day.
I went out to check, and indeed they had left the #key for package compartment "2B" in our box.
With the key snapped off right at the base of the big plastic "gas station bathroom key attached to a cinderblock" fob...
No package tonight, I guess!

With us having moved back home after the flood, we've ordered a bunch of replacement things online.
For your address, which carriers are most reliable?
For us, from great to awful it's:
- #CanadaPost (always on time or early, has parcel boxes in building for easy pickup)
- #UPS (normally on time)
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
- #FedEx (never on time)
- Small Carriers (never on time)
.
.
.
- #Purolator (never on time, > 50% of parcels lost forever)
