What's funny is that I'll probably pop back up under the Purolator brand shortly... Canada Post owns 90%+ of their stock, but Purolator gets to do all the things Canada Post cannot.

Purolator is one third of the cost of FedEx for the use cases our small business has, and is the absolutely needed third player in the shipping market (the US only has two players, Canada has three). In many ways, it is the Amazon shipping option for small businesses like mine.
