Hongkong Post Suspends Mail Services to Canada

November 27, 2024 – In a significant move impacting international correspondence, Hongkong Post has announced the immediate suspension of all mail services to Canada. This decision comes in response to a request from the Canadian postal administration as postal workers in Canada continue their strike for better working conditions and salaries.

The halt of mail services is set to remain effective until further notice, leaving many individuals and businesses in both Hong Kong and Canada facing delays in sending and receiving letters and parcels. The postal authority in Hong Kong has emphasized its commitment to working closely with Canadian postal officials to resume services as swiftly as possible.

The ongoing strike has already disrupted various mail routes and services across Canada, as postal workers advocate for improved labor practices. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers has been rallying support from the public, highlighting the importance of fair wages and the sustainability of postal services.

This development raises concerns about the implications for the holiday shopping season, as many rely on timely deliveries for gifts and essential items. Given the peak season for mail services, affected parties are encouraged to explore alternative delivery options and be prepared for prolonged waiting times.
