Summary
Canada Post is poised for a major overhaul, aiming to shut down underused urban post offices to redirect funds toward improving service in rural, remote, and northern communities where it’s most needed. CEO Doug Ettinger stressed the urgency, calling the current network “over-built” and warning that getting this right is critical—this isn’t just cost-cutting, it’s strategic realignment for equitable, nationwide delivery. The plan, submitted in December, still awaits approval, but the goal remains clear: build a smarter, more efficient postal system that serves all Canadians fairly.
