    As per rfc2119 there is a difference between MAY be profitable and MUST be profitable.

    And I’d argue it SHOULD NOT be profitable, since that’s a measure of how much it’s over-charging for what is a basic need (even for those who don’t realize it is).

      Paper mail stopped being a basic need years ago. All I get are invitations to Hello Fresh and Pizza Pizza.

        Just because you only get ads, doesn’t mean that it isn’t a basic need for a lot of people.

        “My experience is the only relevant one! No one else could possibly be any different from what I’ve personally experienced!”

        That’s what you are saying. That’s how dumb that sounds.

          It’s not based on my experience, it’s based on information from Canada Post’s annual reports showing declining mail delivery. That’s how dumb you sound.

          If you can read:

            Take your pick.

              It was a joke, I also get notices for real estate sales in the area.

              Just look at the numbers. People don’t use CP anymore. The service needs to be rationalized to stay relevant.

        How do you get your license? Health card? In Ontario, both are mailed. You renew approximately every 5 years.
