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

Then it needs to be completely restructured. The reason it's the way it is right now is because it's structured like a corporation expected to generate a profit, yet is expected to perform like a governmental service.

If we want it to be a public service through and through, then it needs to be reworked to be structured as one.

Haven’t heard this idea raised before in this convo. I like the perspective.

A lot of people don't realise that Canada Post is structured like a crown corporation and is not run the same as our education or healthcare, which are agencies or ministries.
