the Canada Post Corporation Strategic Review, which was launched by the Federal

provide affordable service to everyone, no matter where they live if the
government erodes or eliminates the very mechanism that funds universal postal
service – the exclusive privilege; AND

less service, fewer jobs and higher postal rates for the public and small
