Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to thank you all for coming. Of course, this time last year, we were still hot and heavy in a campaign in which the future of Canada Post was an issue. I had a number of difficult conversations with mail carriers in my riding about the somewhat contentious nature of our position that we weren't necessarily going to restore home delivery. We were going to put a moratorium in place on the implementation of the community mailboxes, and then we were going to engage in a broad consultation to see what the future of Canada Post would look like.
Of course, this is what we have done. As part of this process, we've really learned that the Canada Post brand is quite strong. It's a real sense of identity for many Canadians, largely because Canada Post is one of the institutions that helped build our country, so everyone feels there should be a role in the continued growth and building of Canada within Canada Post.
Because we get to hear often from CUPW members, I want to focus my first few questions on Mr. Cavanagh. As a member of the public, but also knowing how your members feel about Canada Post.... When we look at the task force report and also at the Canada Post annual report, we see they refer to five types of delivery. They singled one out as being door to door, which is in the older urban communities—straight to the mailbox on the door—but they also have centralized points in condominiums and retirement and assisted-living residences, rural mailboxes at the end of laneways, group mailboxes, the community mailboxes, and post office boxes.
When you talk about door-to-door delivery, do you include any of those other categories as door-to-door delivery? When you think of door to door, do you think of apartment buildings or the end of driveways as being equivalent, or not?
