It's nice to see that we no longer trust privatization as a the magic wand that solves public institution problems.

That said I think the 52% support for non-union gig work in Canada Post is indicative of the mindset that needs shifting if Canada is to change course in a way that makes most people better off long term.

I would rather a regulatory and subsidization approach direct aimed at targeting the high-value segments of package delivery currently making money for private competitors. Build a business plan to go head-to-head with them on their most profitable market share, but with support of the federal government. Become more sustainable by taking the profits away from UPS and FedEx.
