Mail strike almost over

The mail will start moving Tuesday or so but lots of people have moved on. I always paid bills by mail -- but now I have moved to payment by the web. I suspect mail volumes just won't recover:

Mail could be moving again by Tuesday following speedy Senate approval of government legislation ordering locked-out Canada Post workers back to their jobs.

During a rare Sunday sitting, senators vigorously debated — but ultimately approved — a bill that sets the stage for resumption of mail service.

  1. This is really a case of forcing management to stop the lockout, rather than forcing the workers back to work. By using Harper's framing, you are giving legitimacy to his lying spin.

  2. Good point -- I was oblivious and you are right
