Here's what's actually happening, in my experience. There are Canada Post post offices, with unionized Canada Post staff, and when, say, there's a fire or a death or another reason that this model is no longer possible, Canada Post pushes to privatize those locations and contract out those services. Once those services are contracted out, there is no obligation to consult the community when you go from a privatized post office to a mailbox on the side of the road. We've seen that trend across the country, in violation of the mandate that your government set.
