Keeping our
commitment in
rural Canada

Canada’s rural communities are vital to Canada Post. In fact, one of the most important parts
of our commitment is making postal products and services more accessible to rural Canadians.
To help us do this, we plan to use the resources and the expertise of the private sector. Where
practical, we are approaching local business people in communities across the country offering
them the opportunity to provide you with postal products and services through their businesses.
As a result, you will be able to buy postal products or services in attractive locations at
convenient hours, often including evenings and weekends.

ge: the more you it
‘the more you'll agree

Certain groups see our changes as an erosion of postal
services in rural communities such as yours. Nothing could
be further from the truth. By allowing local merchants to
operate retail postal outlets, postal services as a whole will be
more accessible — and more efficient — than ever before.

In the long run it will help us keep postal rates reasonable
and leave the way clear for Canada Post to preserve their
presence in rural Canada.

Simply stated, by using retail merchants to sell stamps and
other postal products and services, Canada Post can concen-
trate on what it does best: picking-up, processing and deliver-
ing the mail in a cost-effective way that benefits all Canadians,
rural and urban alike.

— Nothing to lose — — Everything to gain —

Consultation for a start, we will engage in at least a More outlets the objective is to increase the number
90-day consultation period involving all of our customers of rural locations where you can access postal products

in your community, including your municipal authorities. or services from 5,000 to 7,000 and nationally by a third
to 18,000.

More convenience Reiail postal outlets will be
conveniently located in a business close to other services
in your community. Longer business hours will give you
even more flexibility.

More business for local merchants
Opportunities for local merchants to provide postal products
or services will strengthen the community’s business base.

More efficient Service By utilizing local merchants’
retail experience, Canada Post will be able to concentrate
on reliable pick-up, processing and delivery of mail to

Canadians.

Jobs Changes are being made when natural opportunities
occur, such as when a postmaster resigns, retires or is
promoted. No postmaster has lost a job as a result of this
program

Identity The postal identity and name of your community
will be preserved intact on signage and for addressing
purpos S.

Security Retail outlets will be bound by contract to main-
tain the same security and sanctity of mail standards as
Canada Post.

Commitment, service More and more, retail postal
outlets will be operated by local business people who already
have strong roots in your community and share with you the
same interest in maintaining high postal standards, and where

possible, improving them. Local delivery service will be
maintained.

Canada Post is in rural Canada to stay.
That’ a promise.
