Apparently the local SFU campus branch of Canada Post is closing on this upcoming Sunday due to “lack of profits” (the words of the local clerk).
SFU is on a freaking mountain, students and staff living on campus (either in residence or the expanding UniverCity community of what’s supposed to be a self-contained city) now have to make the 15 minute bus ride or drive down to the bottom of the mountain to find the nearest post office.
I thought Canada Post was supposed to be a service to Canadians, not a business that we’re making money off of.
that sounds kinda fucked. where I work (DT T.O.) i have 3 Canada Post’s (2 stores, 1 outlet) literally witihin a 3 minute walk. yet your area of 10s of thousands has none? lame.
