Canada Post’s strike ends tomorrow with a federal return-to-work order. BUT... with no contract in place, could we face another strike in May when negotiations resume? What does this mean for Canadian businesses already forced to adapt during the busy holiday season? In 2023, Float customers saw a 21% MoM increase in Canada Post delivery spend from October to November—the holiday shopping rush. But in 2024? A 64% MoM decrease during the same period (thanks to the strike), while overall delivery spend grew by 29%. Canadian companies are resilient and many have already pivoted, embracing alternatives like: 🌍 International carriers: FedEx, UPS, DHL, Loomis Express, ShipStation 🍁 Canadian options: Stallion Express But here’s the bigger question: 💡 Should we rethink reliance on legacy institutions like Canada Post? 💡 Is it time to explore alternatives across other outdated systems (e.g. banks, *ahem*)? What’s your strategy to stay ahead? Speaking of reimagining Canadian institutions 👀  https://lnkd.in/gbeMjs8P
