MP Michael Barrett weighs in
The Canada Post strike is creating widespread disruptions, leaving businesses and residents across Canada struggling with delayed mail and parcel delivery.
Leeds–Grenville–Thousand Islands and Rideau Lakes MP Michael Barrett said the situation is not unprecedented and raised ongoing concerns about postal reliability.
The strike is making life more difficult for people and organizations that rely on timely delivery of bills, documents and other essential items.
Barrett added the responsibility now rests with the Liberal government, which he believes failed to prepare adequately.
In Brockville, city officials are urging residents not to mail payments or important paperwork while the strike continues.
Alternatives include paying water bills online or by phone, using the City Hall drop box, or visiting customer service directly.
The strike is expected to have a heavy impact, especially with the busy holiday shipping season approaching.
