Agreed, it will just sit and sit and sit. Even after this lockout is over there will be delays due to the bulk of mail to be delivered. __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 10000+ posts 3rd in posts in Ontario 15th in posts on MOTL Top 5 in Refs in Ontario (by people who location posted)

I guess you could use an alternate service like FedEx or Purolator or something, I'm not sure how much they cost though.

It will be over quickly though as they will be legislated back to work.http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/ottawa-vows-to-legislate-an-end-to-canada-post-labour-dispute/article2062021/ __________________ Member Since 03/28/2001 10000+ posts 3rd in posts in Ontario 15th in posts on MOTL Top 5 in Refs in Ontario (by people who location posted)

How does this effect Ebay sales from US to Canada? This month my friend and I have been shipping quite a few regular white envelopes of cards to Canada but have yet to hear of any complaints of not receiving the cards.

I havn't recieved a single piece of mail all week... I'm guessing the stuff you got out hasn't reached anyone and they are probably just being patient.

I would hope that anyone in Canada that is expecting something in the mail is at least somewhat aware of the situation. __________________ Wisconsin - smells like dairy air!

I use my Purolator account at work (about 3 bucks to the states)....otherwise it's 20+ from my job to another CITY in the SAME province -_- So no, there's not any choices unless you make a 250+ trade...even then :/

Dang!I'll never be able to finish my darn LEDless Dredge LGSs are too crappy to have the right stuff and the players are too much into T2 to even have dredge cards, or even legacy cards for that matter :/// Edit: French mistakes... only drank 2 Sleeman and it's already kicking in :P
