Rural communities already overwhelmingly use community post boxes. If the proposed changes really disadvantage rural folks, then that'll be something to change.

Ha, good clarification!
Sadly, I keep too busy with other stuff so I don't have that much time for tv. I can usually sort of keep up with 1 - 2 shows at a time. I'll have a bit more in the fall but my backlog is pretty big (the Bear, Fargo and Succession are the next 3 in my queue.)
I'm not sure how the Postal service could be used to help our friends in Ukraine or deter Russian aggression in Europe, but open to suggestions!
Wait, they're still in a budget hole after this plan? That's some union!
(Canada Post is on track to cost 1.5 billion over costs in 2025, so almost $40 for each of the 40ish million Canadians including children etc.)
Most of those are handled provincially and I can't speak for other provinces but BC at least is using federal transfer ms (which budget cuts elsewhere help fund) to help hire more nurses and firefighters.
Next pandemic, I'll have to watch all of Voyager and then play this as it looks like a good time!
I'm torn. I don't want anyone to lose their jobs but I don't love subsidizing reasonably expensive jobs that don't provide much in surplus value compared to say, teachers, nurses, firefighters etc, all of whom we desperately need.
This reminds me of the bags of sand moment in 40 year old virgin.
About as convincing as Ray on trailer park boys getting busted for solicitation. "What? Prostitution? That money wasn't for sex! It was for... This is illegal!"
Those are really great suggestions, especially as I already enjoy or have enjoyed half of them. I haven't kayaked in at least a dozen years and I live on Canada's West freakin' coast!
Pickleball seems like a slower and thus lifelong version of tennis, is that kind of the idea? Can you just not smash that sort of ball very hard/far?
