There is a potential for Canada Post to be on strike by next Wednesday Nov. 13. There should be mail delivered on Tuesday Nov. 12.
If Canada Post does go on strike the Thetis Island Post Office will stay open until all parcels are delivered. We will conduct business as usual with the understanding mail will not be going out or coming in. We will hold all outgoing mail until the strike is over.

Mail and Parcels
According to regulations we are only supposed to keep mail and parcels for 2 weeks then we are to send it back. Obviously, we have not been doing that. If you are going to be away longer than 2 weeks, please let us know length of time so we can hold your mail. Depending on the length of time there could be a fee charged for parcels.
· Please bring parcel tags to facilitate retrieving your parcels
