Won’t be using Canada Post again

DEAR EDITOR:

I ordered a product from Ontario last November. The package was shipped from Mississauga on Dec. 4, arriving in Penticton three weeks later.

All good, Canada Post is busy that time of year.

Then, Canada Post sent the package back because my street name had been misspelled. This is where my story gets absurd! The package came all the way based on the correct postal code. My name, house number, city, province and postal code were all correct.

The truly ridiculous part of this is that my home is the only one with that postal code.

We hear every year, how busy the good folks at Canada Post are at Christmas. Therefore, I humbly suggest we all do them a massive favour and lighten their load by refusing to use the post office and send our parcels with any of the great couriers we have across the country.

Tim Lyons, Penticton
