Canada Post to start taking commercial mail again

Canada Post to start accepting commercial mail as it ramps up post-strike operations Canada Post is set to start accepting commercial letters and parcels as it works to get back to normal operations following a month-long strike.

The postal service has warned Canadians should expect delays into the new year as it works through a backlog of mail, after workers went back on the job Tuesday.

Canada Post said mail is being processed on a first-in, first-out basis, and it will start accepting new international mail on Dec. 23. More than 55,000 employees were ordered back to work by the Canada Industrial Relations Board after it determined a deal could not be reached before the end of the year.
