Yes the mail in Ontario has been poor since Feb. 18/2013 when they de-mechanized several Ontario plants and around the country. Canada Post will only have 7 plants mechanized in the country by the end of this year, before there was 14 major centres.
In Windsor, they de-mechanized the plant and local mail now takes 4 business days or more. It use to be next business day. They also started to pick mail up by 3:00 p.m. instead of 5:00 p.m. to send it down the road to return someday. Great plan! My neighbour works there and he said the truck they use to load the mail to go down road to get processed is half of size as it use to be and only one truck instead of 3 tracker trailers yet the mail just sits there until there is room for it to be shipped. Or until management calls for an extra trucks to take it out, usually on Fridays. Windsor rallied and petitioned against this but no result.
This is happening throughout the country, some areas have less mail so they are not as affected as Windsor is. I get an average of 8 pieces of mail per day, no not just bills and ad mail, actual letters too.
If you are unhappy about the service call Canada Post and let them know. I do know Windsorites are calling frequently, it is all over my social media sites.
