"The federal government says it will not launch public hearings into sweeping Canada Post service cuts, arguing its priority is implementing reforms aimed at improving the Crown corporation's financial position.

In a formal response to a House of Commons petition, cabinet said a comprehensive review of Canada Post's future could come later, but immediate changes to the postal service take precedence."

"...Canada Post is the biggest culprit. TC Transcontinental, which had distributed Publisac door-to-door in Quebec, formed a strategic partnership with Canada Post, which as a Crown corporation was not beholden to municipal bylaws. They bypassed Mayor Plante’s new regulation by distributing a curated bundle of flyers called Raddar through the national postal service. Unlike Publisac, Raddar did not include a community newspaper. On the sidelines of this saga, news publisher Métro Média and its more than 30 hyperlocal publications — including 17 print newspapers – shut down.

In partnership with Canada Post, TC Transcontinental recently expanded its Raddar offering across Canada. It is understood that Canada Post – which has a mandate to “charge postage rates that are fair and reasonable” – is offering TC Transcontinental rates below what it is offering to community newspapers. To its own benefit, the Crown corporation has effectively shut community newspapers – their private sector rivals – out of flyer distribution, lessening competition substantially in that market."

"Canada Post handed out $30.8 million in executive and management bonuses in 2025, despite taking a taxpayer-funded bailout and losing nearly $1.6 billion, according to government records obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.

“It’s absolutely unacceptable that Canada Post is handing out bonuses while taking a taxpayer-funded bailout,” said Franco Terrazzano, CTF Federal Director. “If Canada Post is taking taxpayer-funded bailouts, then there’s no way its managers and executives should be showering themselves with bonuses.”

Canada Post rubberstamped $30.8 million in bonuses for its managers and executives in 2025, according to the Crown corporation’s report to Parliament’s government operations committee.

The average bonus for its executives and managers was about $13,000.

Canada Post refused to break down how much it gave its executives. Instead, it buried executive bonuses inside the management total. It also didn’t disclose what percentage of executives took a bonus.

The Crown corporation also refused to disclose how much bonuses cost for its non-management staff.

Canada Post has consistently tried to withhold its bonus information and even ignored access-to-information laws."

"A new report from the C.D. Howe Institute is calling for the end of Canada Post’s monopoly and deregulation of the postal market, but stops short of advocating for outright privatization."
