Hello Canadian sellers,
This thread is open for discussion regarding the recent announcement about eBay Canada retiring USD support from its selling flows. Myself and other employees will come visit this thread and do our best to answer any questions on this topic.
"can I still access Canada Post through Paypal and print Postage like I do now on Ebay.ca?"
Yes.
What a mess!!!! This is one class A Joke!!!! I used the conversion tool as I stayed on Ebay.ca and only half of my items converted to Canadian while the other half stayed in usd.......and get this...... yet another 150+ items were added without me knowing. What was it that was added you ask? The stupid ebay programmers added my sold items from the past 90 days to items being live!!!! yes thats right....my sold items from a day old to 90 days ago!!!! Before I knew this happened, 3 of those sold items were sold and I have to jump through hoops to tell the buyers who bought them that it was a mistake by Ebay because of this conversion fiasco...... and not one oft hem were happy and/or believed me. They thought I was making it up. The buyers are right too. Who's to blame? No help either....... nope........I'm small potatoes as I was told basically too bad and that I would have to do the fixing myself as allot of the non-converted listings were too old - like 16 months +old??. This wouldn't have happened if this godforsaken change and screw up of the highest order didnt happen!!!! I now have to relist and delete one by one now and have been doing so for the past 2 weeks. Plus I'm losing all my watchers from the deleted usd listings. Its already eating up my free time to list new items. Fun! Very Fun! Thanks a bunch Ebay.ca! Sales are down more than 50% with it tanking more everyday. I am very happy 
....Lets Celebrate!
" So if we put stores on holiday we can't relist..."
Of course you and all other sellers in that situation can relist. Not a problem.
My store will soon go in vacation with all listings hidden so nobody can buy them. In the meantime whenever a listing ends, I have the ability to relist, at that time or later. GTC listings are automatically renewed for 30 days, whether the store is on vacation or not.
The listings will not be seen until I remove the "on vacation" settings.
"can we also list new items?"
Yes.
In fact many Canadian sellers use a postal strike period to list new items since they do not have to spend their time invoicing, packing and mailing.
Use the time available for future sales.
"So I've heard Trudeau isn't going to step in on this one"
Every Prime Minister said the same thing two weeks before a strike date as they do not want to influence the result of negotiations.
Once the country is faced with a week or two of actual general strike (or lockout) government sees things a bit differently.
