This comments section doesn't feel like a safe place to have this discussion 😅

That says more about the people here in this little filter bubble/echo chamber than anything else. Most replies you can see don't even have the maturity to enter good faith debate.

Like the LCBO, SAQ, Air Canada, Petro Canada or other previous/existing crown corps, they compete with private industry and generate revenue. They are required by the government to be renevue neutral.

Canada Post will continue to mint 55 year old retirees living like millionares requiring nothing more than a high school education into the 2040s, servicing their pension past the 2070s with no effort other than checking a box to have a fee thousand of their pretax pay used. There aren't jobs with compensation that good in private industry for that level of education. Yes private industry should have better compensation, but that's beside the point.

People either are being intentionally misleading to others, or if we give them the benefit of the doubt, are blissfully unaware of actual facts and aren't interested in being competently informed 🙈🙉🙊
