I think Canada Post will push community mailbox behind the scene. Limited days of mail delivery is a PR move. Canada Post is not going to give up the money making parcel delivery to it's competitors who offer same day any day service. Limited days of mail would be a huge logistical challenge.

Any Posties out the that can spare a few minutes on the phone with a prospect? Looking for someone who’s taken the journey recently, and not afraid to share the good, bad and ugly. PM me if you can help, I’ll handle intros and setup the call.

Kind of amusing that CP doesn't share their numbers on the Sunshine List....The people who are in charge of Canada Post

*Edit - Just googled it up. $500K / year for the CEO, not including bonuses.. You can get more than 10 low seniority permanent full time posties for that. Sigh.

The so-called Sunshine List, as we know it, applies to Ontario only. I'm uncertain if there is a national equivalent.
And even in Ontario has huge holes. Almost all doctors for instance as technically their privately held corporations are paid and not the doctors. Sunshine list is just a game. Leaving the threshold at 100k for decades is the icing on the cake.

I like the 100K threshold. The purpose of the sunshine list was to illuminate public sector wages at a time when they had overtaken their private sector counterparts. There have been cries to index the $100K to inflation -- I'm OK with that, but not until the gap between private and public sector pay gets closed.
Reasonable.
If you tie the threshold to inflation now and list still grows every year it makes it easy to see that well-paid public sector wages always beat inflation.
Only six of them though. Barely a toe dip. The results will be interesting. If they order no more, that's a huge slap in the face for canoo. If they order thousands, GOEV could spike.
This is one reason why they will never make money delivering parcels.
To be fair though, I have seen the same thing with Fedex drivers.

Another very sorry we got caught. That happens every day.
My neighbour's sister is a doctor (GP) in Barrie and he related what she gets for seeing a patient. Either it is pathetic or her numbers are slanted to look bad for OHIP.
There are some other screwy walk-in clinic adjustments as well. If you go to a walk in clinic for a sprain your GP gets dinged.
The OHIP secrecy needs to be eliminated.
Trudeau's capital gain increase has some doctors talking about moving south. JT's reply is "Canadians will understand if they have to wait longer..."
No we won't.
My understanding is they don't get an appointment fee, they get a roster fee. Have a full roster of patients (I don't know how many people that is) and they get something like $325k yearly. From that they pay all expenses including rent and staff. If you go to a non-affiliated walk in clinic, their income gets reduced by something like $70 each time. Doctor shortage is bad enough that docs have started derostering patients that cost them money and/or need a lot of attention. It's easier to deal with a full roster of healthy young people and the pay is the same.
Skippy's not stupid. Well, not Sling Blade stupid, but smart enough to realize (or his handlers have beaten it into his brain) that we're turfing him with extreme prejudice next October so he'll just say anything at this point.
My GP has a receptionist and an assistant, rent, insurance and utilities. I don't know about the insurance cost but it won't be cheap. He doesn't have a lot of high tech equipment, farming out the biochemistry and imagery.
Apparently derostering a patient isn't easy. Take the above out of $325K and it's not a mind boggling amount of money. A lady we knew was married to a doctor. She felt that doctors made more than other university business graduates but didn't really get ahead until they were in their mid 40's due to education costs, internships etc.
I've used walk in clinics a few times and feel they are just a small step above a first aid station.
A lot of Liberal MP's will be lining up, pants down, for burn ointment to be applied.
Maybe Skippy is like Trump: ""I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?" Trump remarked at a campaign stop at Dordt College in Sioux Center, Iowa. "It's, like, incredible."
Skippy may think he's as invulnerable and people will love him regardless of what he says or does. "The budget will take care of itself." He could tell his fan base to F*** O** and they'd look at it and laugh like when a three year old tells mom to F*** O**. Isn't that cute, he's saying words.
That makes sense, if the customer is not home and the carrier actually has the package. In the case of the video this carrier had the slips pre-filled out and left the package(s) in the van. He is not dumb, he's lazy and got caught...
