The reason #CanadaPost is broke is because packages sit in warehouses for days without moving. It’s a shit service that was absolutely ripe for disruption and that’s what happened. If you have crap service, people build and look for alternatives.

Blame the management, blame the union…they are both responsible for killing Canada Post.

I rode to the drugstore to check if they had a product, and to send a gift through their in-store #CanadaPost. It was closed.

Didn't think much about it; finished my errands and stopped by the main post office on the way home.

They were closed.

Oh, right. Long holiday weekend.

oh, gads, there's going to be zillions of extra visitors to #VancouverIsland this weekend. Time to hit the grocery store to stock up for hunkering down and not going anywhere.

Life in Paradise.

Me: How long to mail this package from <X> to <Y>?

Canada Post: I can help you with that! Let's see ... 3 days.

Me: 3 days? That's not too bad, even if I could drive there in 16 hours. Maybe 14 if I pushed it.

Canada Post: Oh, no, no need to drive! We can definitely deliver it in 4-5 days.

Me: 4-5 days? What happened to 3?

Canada Post: Don't worry about it! Once you give us the package, the recipient will have it inside of 7 days.

Me: What's going on here?

Canada Post: Two weeks, tops.
