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!

But really, with the number of Amazon deliveries, don't tell me that delivering mail directly to our door everyday isn't doable!
The problem is when Amazon and Postes Canada compete to offer the same service, effectively doubling the service. One of them will be made redundant.
We don't need 2 postal service!
Here's an idea:
Nationalize Amazon and Intelcom, merge that with Postes Canada, and combine it with that idea of doing a social check on isolated folks. Now that would be a plan!!
But no way these business guys will ever do that. They are too happy to cut public services to privatize more and more!
This is why we can't have nice things!
