We all need to set fire to billions of dollars a year…
Funding Canada Post is less than 1% of the government’s budget. This is not the place to focus on cutting costs.
You should be returning to a desk to pick up such an important document, and providing proper ID to a properly trained individual to receive such a thing, in a controlled environment.
How much is that going to cost? The amount of wasted money and man hours to do that justifies the cost of Canada Post.
It would probably cost quite a bit, but would it cost as much as people with white gloves going door to door? A few people at a desk for 8 hours surely has to be cheaper than a fleet of vehicles burning gas and maintenance, and numerous individuals out hand delivering passports (which need to be signed off on). Or if it was like mine this summer, I caught the bastard trying to put one of those we missed you, pick it up here flyers on my door, because he didn’t ring the doorbell and didn’t actually try to deliver it. Don’t get me started on that (different issue). But yeah so now I’ve got to go to a location and get it from a person behind a desk anyways, if I’m not there. That’s for sure super cost effective /s
