Door-to-Door Postal Services
Year: 2018
Resolution
Whereas many citizens in Saskatchewan lost door-to-door mail service through the actions of the former federal government; and
Whereas the convenience of door-to-door service is one of the few visible physical services many city residents see for their federal taxes; and
Whereas the present federal government said they will listen to the needs of citizens;
Therefore be it resolved that the SUMA ask the present federal government to reinstate door-to-door postal service in all Saskatchewan hometowns as soon as possible and enhance door-to-door services, instead of reducing services.
Background
In the fall of 2015, Canada Post cut door-to-door service to three Saskatchewan cities. This change affected more than 9,000 addresses in Prince Albert.
