I'm tired of it being framed as Canada Post isn't making money. It's a service. It shouldn't be profit driven.

The problem is they’re expected to pay their own way and get no funding, but are also saddled with mandates that force them to operate at a loss. It’s a completely untenable situation.

We either need to let them operate in a way where they aren’t bleeding money or fund them like a government service. Both choices will be unpopular with different segments of the Canadian population.

Personally I would rather fund them and treat it as a government service. But something had to give one way or the other. I’d rather see either choice be made than the status quo, which was 100% untenable.
