Government Operations committee  I'm a letter carrier.

Government Operations committee  I sent her this in May. Actually, my MP is Randy Boissonnault, so I gave it to his assistant, whose name was Tony, on January 4, and while I kept trying to see Randy just about every week, he said that he would be back next week, next week, and next week. On February 26, he gave me back all my stuff because Randy wouldn't be interested in looking at it.

Government Operations committee  Actually, he is at Canada Post. The last page I gave was that LinkedIn one. That's the guy I was actually talking to.

Government Operations committee  That's right.

Government Operations committee  No.

Government Operations committee  That's right.

Government Operations committee  I was trying to, hopefully, get another job at Canada Post, making these cases instead of delivering mail. I'd been delivering mail for 27 years. I thought I'd try something different.

Government Operations committee  It would be a lot, because I could take somebody who doesn't know anything about the job, and they could make them. With theirs, I said I had to make the paper thing, and you still do that now. You still do the paper thing, but with mine it's totally automated. You wouldn't have to know what you were doing.

Government Operations committee  No, it just provides those strips in the cases for when people sort their mail, the addresses. We have these cases that we sort the mail into.

Government Operations committee  These strips are made by us. If you want new strips, you have to actually physically write down where you want each one of the addresses to go, whereas with mine, you just put down all the postal codes on your walk, and it creates the case for you.

Government Operations committee  That's right.

Government Operations committee  Yes.

Government Operations committee  Yes, it was kind of like what that one lady who was here, Debby Kronewitt-Martin, was saying. She seemed to be talking about that, the way that Canada Post management.... That's what I find. They present themselves as nimble, free-thinking, or whatever, yet when you try to present an idea to them, they don't want to even look at it.

Government Operations committee  No, I can't even get it looked at.

Government Operations committee  I've been a letter carrier for 27 years. I wanted to speak today because about 10 years ago we had these cases that we sorted our mail into, and every time I got on to a new case, I found that it maybe wasn't laid out that well. So the first thing I would do was to take sheets of paper and write down exactly where I wanted each one of the addresses to go.
