I just want to conclude with a question related to small and medium-size businesses, particularly in rural and remote communities. I was surprised to learn that they remit over $350 million per year in prepaid postage through postage meters. I learned that metered mail is cheaper to process, improves address accuracy, and helps retain stable high-volume users in the postal network.
Can you explain how giving Canada Post greater flexibility to design targeted pricing, such as for metered mail, helps retain mail volumes, supports rural, small and medium-size businesses, and protects the long-term viability of Canada Post?
