For those that seek a future that brings together the best of the insights and objectives of people who, within the social democratic and democratic socialist traditions, have worked through farmer, labour, co-operative, feminist, human rights and environmental movements, and with First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples, to build a more just, equal, and sustainable Canada within a global community dedicated to the same goals.

Why is that such a bad thing?
It's an inefficient luxury service for an ever smaller potion of the population. Why would the NDP want to prop that up?
There are many better policies we should discuss to improve Canada Post, door delivery is becoming a political dog whistle for boomer political support.
I'll tell you exactly why the NDP would support it. Because the NDP supports labour.
It's a level of service that used to be bog-standard. Fighting for service cuts to avoid paying a couple extra bucks on the tax bill, and opening the door for extremely shitty and exploitative private entities to pick up the slack – that's pretty much the boomer legacy in a nutshell.
To be clear, I don't have an issue with community mailboxes. It's the political context that makes this worth arguing about.
So, I bought my house in 2011 and am a millennial. I still have home delivery. You seem like you want to enshitify something because you don't benefit directly.
