07:52 AM EDT, 10/09/2025 (MT Newswires) -- An overwhelming majority of small businesses, or 87%, support reforming Canada Post, finds a new report from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) published on Thursday.

Half of businesses support reduced residential mail delivery --52% -- and replacing door-to-door delivery with community mailboxes -- 51% -- while over two in five support limiting or freezing employee compensation packages over the next few years (45%), and replacing corporate postal outlets with franchised locations (42%), said CFIB.

CFIB is urging the federal government to immediately end the labor strike at Canada Post and quickly push forward with the announced changes.
