Canadian Postmen will become Redundant
The Crown corporation will phase out door-to-door delivery in favour "of community mailboxes" as part of a new business model to try to stop bleeding money.
The volume of letter mail has been in free fall and Canada Post expects the trend to continue.
The new system will allow Canada Post to compete in the fast-paced and technology-driven global parcel market," the new business plan states.
Canada Post spokeswoman Anick Losier said it's about meeting consumer demand while strengthening the bottom line.
"We spoke with thousands of Canadians over the last six months or so and they told us two things that are really important — they're using us differently regardless of what we do, and they don't want us to become a burden on their taxes." she said.
