David Moscrop: “The debate over the future of Canada Post ultimately forces us to ask what we want public institutions to be for. A mandate to serve the collective good is not the same thing as a mandate to maximize the bottom line. The two may occasionally overlap, but they are not the same project.”

@mike_vlasman Does anyone really think Canada Post should maximise profit? The real question is, how can we structure #CanadaPost to provide the services we want it to provide, while requiring the least tax dollars, ideally on a break-even basis.

If we send Canada Post $1.5B, that's money we can't spend on something else, or money we're borrowing and leaving future Canadians to pay for.
