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.

It’s a service that’s mostly used by businesses to send junk mail to everyone.

Because it's one of their revenue streams. Nationalize Canada Post, stop caring about revenue and stop delivering non-addressed mail.

    Canada Post is already a crown corporation, but it is managed like a private corpo for whatever fucking weird reason.

    Lots of private interests trying to get their greasy finger into Canada Post and suck it dry.
