Shipping Update: Potential Canada Post Disruption
Share
Last Updated: November 13 2024
We’re reaching out with an important update regarding the ongoing Canada Post negotiations. Recently, Canada Post received official strike notices from the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW).
According to these notices, unless a resolution is reached, strike activity could begin as early as Friday, November 15, following the mandatory 72-hour notice period.
What This Means for Your Orders
To ensure reliable delivery, Menopod is prepared to use alternative carriers should a disruption occur, both nationally and internationally. We’re coordinating with trusted providers to minimize any potential impact on your order.
Alternative Carriers for Reliable Delivery
We’ve selected a range of alternative shipping options to keep your orders on track, even if Canada Post services are interrupted:
UPS & Purolator: These will be our primary carriers for Canadian orders. Chosen for their reliability and extensive national network, UPS and Purolator allow us to maintain high delivery standards while keeping courier costs to a minimum.
Amazon: To handle orders swiftly, especially during peak season, we’ll leverage Amazon’s Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MFC) for some orders in Canada and the United States. This option uses our inventory already stored at Amazon warehouses, ensuring quick, efficient delivery that bypasses Canada Post entirely.
Stallion Express Network: For international orders, we’re utilizing Stallion Express’s extensive network of couriers worldwide to provide uninterrupted service. Stallion is known for great customer service and competitive pricing, helping us keep international shipping costs as low as possible.

November 6 2024
We’re closely monitoring the ongoing discussions between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) to keep you informed about any potential changes that might impact Menopod shipments.
Current Status
At present, our business and Canada Post services are operating as usual. However, there is a possibility of a labour disruption in the coming weeks if an agreement isn’t reached. Canada Post has assured that a minimum 72-hour notice will be provided before any potential service interruption.
What This Means for Your Order
For now, you can expect your Menopod orders to be processed and shipped as normal. Should a disruption occur, please know that we’re actively exploring alternative shipping options to minimize any delays and ensure your order reaches you as smoothly as possible.
For our international customers, please note that Canada Post typically hands off packages to your local postal courier. If disruptions occur, we’ll work to coordinate alternative shipping solutions to maintain reliable delivery.

We’re committed to keeping you updated as negotiations evolve. This post will be refreshed with the latest information whenever there’s a new development, so please check back here for updates.
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we navigate this situation. We’re here to support you, and as always, we are ready to answer any questions you may have.
