VANCOUVER, BC – For dozens of local charities and the people they help, the November 18 – 25 timing of this year's REALTORS Care® Blanket Drive couldn't have been better.
For the 19th year in a row, REALTORS® collected enough donations of coats, blankets, sleeping bags and warm clothing to help more than 20,000 people as the mercury plummeted.
Canada Post has announced a new business plan to begin in 2014 which will see the end of door to door delivery in all Urban areas across Canada. Over the next five years door to door service will be replaced by community mailboxes - a move that will save close to 500 million dollars every year. Canada Post developed the plan, which also includes increasing stamp prices, in order to reach financial stability without taking taxpayer money.
