yes, this whole narrative of "lol nobody cares"is obvously gov astroturfing. personally, i have to buy a lot of things online, and canada post is who usually delivers it. i'm also lucky enough to live in a place with door to door parcel delivery.  canada post should operate at a loss if it has to, especially in times with low lending rates. as far as i'm concerned, canada post's job is to deliver mail and packages so that businesses can engage in commerce. it's like roads, they don't make profits in and of themselves, but they allow other to do so at collective expense. it's a public good.  furthermore, if they are paid better, they will spend that money back into the economy themselves. i'm all for people getting paid better, especially when the government can create the needed money into existence. now i hate that they infect this strike with the tranny stuff, you literally can't be on their side without also endorsing this crap. also take note that the private side is struggling really hard, and ups and others are refusing to take packages from 3rd parties. i also hate them because they fuck you around soooo much, especially dhl with their bs customs charges.  > t have a package stuck in transit ordered the day before they went on strike.
