Canada is 9,984,670sq km with a population density of 4.5/sq km. That's ~2.2m routes to see all Canadians 5-times a week.

The UK is 244,376sq km with a population density of 286/sq km. If there was universal coverage that'd be about ~1000 delivery-person-routes per day. So delivering a route is orders of magnitude easier, faster, and simpler for the workers at the Royal Mail.

If the UK only had once a day delivery they'd be 0.045% as efficient as thier Canadian counterparts.

EVEN WITH twice daily delivery the Royal Mail has less than 1% the efficiency of CUPW workers.

With that said, both face external (couriers) and internal (government) pressure to profit.

Ask yourself this: as a service to citizens of both countries, what other public services have to make a profit? National Defence? National Healthcare? National Police?

None do because privateers have already raped and pillaged those services for maximum profit as suppliers. So they don't get lobbied the same - or even compared.

No, just Postal services with their well developed contact with the communities they serve are singled out to be profit centers for cash hungry politicians.

Disgusting? Odd word coming from a shitpile covered in maggots and pus.

Over a million dead trolls. That's a start.

So the memo clearly defined this outcome as pure terrorism. Will the fed prosecute one of the most clearly defined domestic terrorists since McVeigh as such or paper over this criminality with bogus mental health bullshit?

I give bullshit a 99% chance on this one given the fake-president's penchant for pardoning violent criminals who commit crimes on his behalf and in furtherance of his aspirations.

Oooh la-la, fancy parking.

Me too, whenever possible, otherwise I back in to show off my superior driving (and parking) skills.

Every accusation is an admission. Donnie is accusing Biden of EXACTLY what is going on right now: a decrepit old fart machine is the windbag mouthpiece of hitler and goebbels admirers turning the cesspool of the us in a BIGGER cesspool. And if grandpa-senility croaks (or gets Luigi'd) nothing will change because ol'couch-fucker is a brainless twat, too.

CBC Site Of course the Ottawa resident isn't going to leave Stornoway and move to his suburban McMansion. Unemployable as he is, finding a mover who'll take "I'm sure to win the next election!" as a guarantee of payment is, ummmm, sketchier than most movers will accept.

 

If we were to make it too costly for US based companies to advertise would that bolster the "Buy Canadian" trip we're on. So Ford, Kraft, McDonalds etc can go fuck themselves.

Right?

 

I grew up listening to fundie christian parents babble at length how we were living in end times. And mocking them mercilessly (at first among my fiends, later to their faces) as often as possible.

Now look at us - on the brink of non-existence politically, environmentally, and civilizationally. Not sure that last one is a word.

If they were right I'm gonna have some 'splainin to do.

Dammit.

 
 

Just asking. I do not see me alive under u.s. reign, so I've already played that out; just a discussion.

Butt-hurt real estate speculator can't unload this white elephant so now the city should spend public funds on acquiring it. And maintaining it.

Because reasons.

Huh?

If you are facing or have recently faced a renoviction by a flipper or merchant housing dealer, you may not understand the reason: greed. I recently went through a renoviction and it took me some time to see the reason why: the commodification of housing.

Better put as how to double your return on idle money by simply evicting the vulnerable and artificially inflating housing costs.

Big shout out to the conservative faction of "god what's you to be richer at any cost" for bolting a moral veneer of piety to this cruel and commandment breaking (#8, #9, & #10) approach.
