WELLINGTON COUNTY – Canada Post resumed operations Dec. 17, beginning the process of stabilizing operations across the country.
In a Dec. 17 press release officials stated that “With a large, integrated network of processing plants, depots and post offices, stabilizing operations will take time and the company asks Canadians for their patience.”
Parcels, Lettermail and Direct Marketing mail will be distributed on a first-in, first-out basis. Canada Post will start working through the mail and parcels in the system since the beginning of the strike on Nov. 14.
New commercial volumes will not be accepted into the network until Dec. 19.
Service guarantees are suspended as the company ramps up operations and Canadians should expect delivery delays through the remainder of 2024 and into January, with post office hours of operation varying as the company works to stabilize operations.
Canada Post will work to process a significant accumulation of international mail and parcels currently queued up to enter the postal system with delays expected into 2025.
The postal system will start accepting new international mail on Dec.23.
