One question though....if Canada Post does not deliver the items when they arrive, who does?

 


That I couldn't tell you, as I'm pretty sure Canada Post usually delivers them when they get over there, but the announcement suggests they have temporarily contracted a third party to deliver express / courier packages. That's also probably why it's only feasible for the more expensive services, as well.

 

I know it does vary from country to country (eg La Poste delivers standard mail, but Chronopost delivers EMS articles when they arrive in France, and they have much stricter requirements than for standard mail, no PO box deliveries etc).

 

My best guess is if there's a Canadian equivalent of Star Track, or at least a similar courier company that can cover the majority (if not all) of Canada, I expect the parcels will go through them.
