Should Canada Post make money? NDP’s new leader Avi Lewis doesn’t think so
NDP leader Avi Lewis is stirring debate after arguing Canada Post should be treated like an essential public service rather than a profit-driven corporation — just as the agency posts billions in losses and growing pressure over its future.

Canada Post has to serve the entire country. For rural and remote areas there’s not many if any other options, but the Liberals don’t care about “those”people and the conservatives don’t either, they just say they do.
For profit businesses will not do that unless they are subsidized by the government.
That means we will pay either way, because we still need to move a lot of stuff in envelopes.
That is the price you pay to be part of a huge country. You provide services to all citizens, not just those who you can make money from.
