The 1st time I ordered from Tweed I got it delivered by a courier service.

I had to sign for it like any other parcel delivery.

Maybe LP's should use that method as an alternative during mail strikes.

Unless Mr Ford changes it , he has already said Canada post is the only one allowed to deliver marijuana from the OCS.

last 2 canada post packages i got were both 2 days late.. in the last 2 weeks. dont know if its where i live, they used to be on time.. or they just dont care anymore. nothing to do with cannabis.. but just in general. but 2 days late is fucking annoying.

Canada post employees are the laziest bunch of government employees ever. Every year they threaten to strike and the government caves and gives them a bit more. Every year.

They said it’ll be a rotating strike so I guess worst case is you get your package a day or two later.

They get paid exceptionally well for the level of work done. Nonthing they do is hard other then walking. And I'm sorry but if walking isn't your thing don't be a mailman.

It is sad when a letter carrier makes more than a machinist!

they don't even walk that much here.. everyone here is on "super boxes"

Their little buggy truck to the super box and back.. then to the drop off depot then clock out.. they don't even load their own trucks.

Government workers can all piss off. Not only do they have the Union backing them but they also have the gun barrel of the government to extort money from the rest of us through taxes. Selfish fucks. You already get paid more than the rest of us for the same fucking work.
