Canada-bound mail grounded by postal strike
Outbound mail to Canada has been suspended as industrial action among Canadian postal staff continues.
More than 55,000 members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers downed tools on November 15 over wages and working conditions, among other issues.
A government spokeswoman said: “The Bermuda Post Office is further advising that due to the ongoing Canada Post industrial action, a resolution cannot be forecast at this time.
“Therefore, to ensure the security of mail during this time, effective Monday, December 2, all outbound mail transport to Canada will be suspended until the strike ends.
“At this time, the BPO will continue to monitor the developments with Canada Post’s strike action.
“Once normal mail distribution has resumed, mail items will be processed and delivered as quickly as possible.
“The BPO regrets any inconvenience caused during this time.”
