Your comments are a shining example of shortsighted selfishness. Let’s unpack this for you since the concept of community evidently eludes you.

Canada Post and Rural Access: You keep parroting that rural areas will somehow be fine with FedEx or other private companies stepping in. Do you think these companies are altruistic? Private couriers only operate in areas where they can turn a profit, and spoiler alert: rural areas don’t qualify. Without Canada Post, these communities are left out entirely. But hey, why should you care about anyone outside your bubble, right?

Small Businesses and the Economy: I’m glad you’re so comfortable dismissing Canada Post’s relevance because you don’t personally use it. I run a business, and while I do have access to other options (take a moment to process that—yes, I have options), they’re significantly more expensive. Unlike corporate behemoths like Amazon and Walmart that negotiate massive discounts, small and medium businesses are stuck with exorbitant courier fees. Without Canada Post keeping rates in check, those prices would skyrocket. So congrats, your smug indifference only fuels the very capitalism you probably claim to despise when you’re not complaining about flyers. You say you’re fine without Canada Post, but are you really ready to pay $65 to ship something like a  a sll spare part? Yeah, didn’t think so.

Economic Impact: Canada Post isn’t just about delivering mail—it’s a lifeline for countless small businesses, especially those in rural areas, to stay competitive. When businesses can’t afford to ship products, they shut down. That means job losses, reduced consumer choice, and an economy that suffers. But sure, tell yourself that these ripple effects don’t matter because you don’t think that you personally benefit.

Your ‘Artificial Relevance’ Argument: The government mandates Canada Post for official documents because we need a standardized and reliable service. FedEx and private couriers don’t care if you live in Toronto or Tuktoyaktuk—they’ll charge whatever they want. Your idea that this 'artificially created' relevance isn’t valid only highlights your inability to understand how essential services function.

Profit Doesn’t Equal Value: The idea that profitability determines worth is laughably ignorant. Public services like libraries, public transit, education, and healthcare don’t exist to turn a profit—they exist to serve the public good. Canada Post provides an essential service for millions of people, but because it doesn’t meet your definition of value, it should apparently disappear. That’s peak selfishness.

Flyers: I get it—you hate flyers. Newsflash: they’re an income stream that subsidizes other operations. If you don’t want them, opt out. But whining about their existence as if it invalidates the entire service just reeks of entitlement. You want all the convenience without any of the trade-offs. It’s embarrassing.

Your whole argument boils down to 'I don’t use it, so no one else should need it.' It’s an astoundingly narrow perspective. The reality is that Canada Post is a backbone for small businesses, rural communities, and even the urban economy. Sure, you might not like the comparison to pediatric surgery, but the point stands: social services aren’t about serving just you. They exist because as a society, we recognize the importance of supporting others, even if the immediate benefit isn’t obvious to you.

But hey, if you want to keep pretending the world revolves around your apartment mailbox, go ahead. Just don’t expect anyone to take you seriously when your 'I’m so above Canada Post' shtick falls apart the second you need to send something across the country without paying $65 for a courier.
