Canada Post Strike Update
This might come off as a little harsh, but honestly sometimes it's what is needed.
For the record, I completely support the front end, boots on the ground staff of Canada Post. I completely support striking for a livable wage and benefits. I do not support that Canada Post has 14 Vice Presidents... that is giving "Participation Trophy" energy, and I do not like it.
I truly appreciate everyone who has recommended different options for me to ship with, however, I reiterate, it's not that simple of an answer. In order for me to make your keepsakes, I need your inclusions, and the most cost-effective way is to send them through Canada Post. My supplies in order to run this business, are also shipped to me with Canada Post.
The situation is so multifaceted and complicated, and to those of you this is impacting (either as a fellow business owner or a client) I truly appreciate your patience and understanding that this is something entirely out of my control.
My morning affirmations are "I will survive this."
I started this business 8 years ago with two 1-year-olds underfoot. I survived three postal strikes now, a pandemic, a global supply shortage, moving homes twice, and a recession.
I can do hard things... We all can.
We just need to be patient and understanding with each other.
