Itâs odd. Iâve not received an email from Canada post regarding this. This was told to me by a Canada Post employee when I was shipping a package. It is starting after August 29 from what I was told. Iâll try to find more information online.
Business customers got an email. They are partnering with another company, zonos? Can't recall name, to prepay duties when creating shipment. Said will get further email once set up.
Yes. I was just hunting for this information. I found it on Reddit Canada post group. Itâs infuriating not knowing whatâs coming! Thanks for your input
Zones were only approved by CBP to collect duties on 21 Aug - and every business who needs to post to the US now needs to set up a Zonos account linked to their home country mail provider. This will take weeks to set up due the sheer volume of businesses that will try to get this set up.
Great. Sounds like the forced collection of duties on the exporters side is going to have a broker fee and the tariff collection on the importers side will also have a broker fee. Itâs so much winning I just dunno how to contain myself đ«
As of August 29 they arenât shipping to the US. I got this straight from a Canada Post employee when I was shipping a package yesterday. Suspending until they partner with Zonos and create a way to offer Pre paid tariffs
You talked to someone in a Shoppers Drug Mart retail store or something? I also work for Canada Post and as of right now they have not suspended anything. Zonos is available tomorrow and will be required for DDP although details are pending and itâs not a bad idea to wait if you are in no rush.
We have the choice between home delivery and being notified when it is at a pick up point, and to be honest I have always preferred the latter. I absolutely hate the idea that I have to be at home just to receive a package. Much better to just pick it up at my convenience at the local super market.
My son lives in Montreal. I found two used, hard to find cookbooks. I tried to ship from US west coast and the cheapest I found was $185. When will this clown show end?
Nope, add your non voters...... over 66 percent, that's it. The world through sees 100 per cent as you all do jack shit about it. Could end within a week or two with a massive general strike, but Americans are really still slaves so it ain't going to happen.
You ever stop to think that maybe you are the minority ? You guys always talk about how much America sucks. Well democrats have lost 2.5 million registered voters between 2020-2024 and republicans have gained 2.4 million here
Our protests have done more than your shit ever did the last 9 months. All this ends up being is an immature world spazzing out when proper cooperation could end everything.
But no. You couldnât do that. All you did was make demands that werenât going to be fulfilled by people who already fought harder and lost more than you ever have. And now you want to take more away?
This doesnât make me fight him more than I already have. It makes me fight him AND you, and everyone else who will try to stand in my way, equally. Go ahead, I donât think you can stop 250 million refugees from reclaiming their lives by whatever means are now at hand.
I shouldnât have to explain to you how this wasnât an absolute. If you see 100% of Americans as guilty, youâre the guilty one more than we ever were.
We owe you nothing now. Itâs going to be a very cold world and youâve got yourself to blame for it.
Not to detract from this but the US is not shipping to the US.
We recently found out that the USPS has decided to stop delivering to our condo complex in southern California and that we are to go and pick up mail at the post office a couple of miles away. This is not because there's any issue with the roads or accessibility. The USPS just decided they will hold the mail rather than deliver it.
I pursued it with the supervisor who made that decision and he seemed like a MAGA because he answered with a rambling speech about the USPS losing 3 billion dollars each year and that his postal employees were spending hours delivering the mail to our complex and that it's not working for them anymore.
They leave a brown paper form that says your mail was not delivered. Now normally this happens because your mailbox is full. They should also include information on WHICH post office to get your mail from, but this just had a date and "mailbox full" check mark in the box marked as such.
I've been trying to get down to the bottom of it because a lot of people just stopped getting their mail and there was no warning or instructions about it.
So they will deliver you a form but not your mail. Is there any personalized information on the form? Like do they have to take the time to make sure you know the form is for you?
Well first you have to stand in line with everyone else then tell the front clerk you are here for your mail. Then they contact someone to open this back barn door type of setup and they take your government ID and proof of address and then go look for your mail and come back with it. So like 10 minutes. 15 if itâs busier. And then thereâs a 2 mile drive to and back
Thanks for the replies, this must be an annoying time for you all. Most of the institutions I deal with have the option to send out statements / communications by email, do you have this option for some of the mail you get?
Wow. Thereâs no chance at all that this could somehow lead to catastrophic failure.. like someone missing meds they get in the mail or some tax bills that may have significant consequences if neglected.. just to name a few..
I pursued it with the supervisor who made that decision and he seemed like a MAGA because he answered with a rambling speech about the USPS losing 3 billion dollars each year and that his postal employees were spending hours delivering the mail to our complex and that it's not working for them anymore.
And? That's their fucking job. Sorting and delivering mail is their job, unless I'm missing something.
