And yet they see no consequence to their gender critical rhetoric that affects millions worldwide, at a time when trans freedom is under attack.

Not surprised.

The North is a big part of why Canada Post is so important. It is a massive economic equalizer for remote communities and small businesses.

I've run an online shop for the last 3 years, and so many orders shipped to northern and reserve communities, at no extra cost to me or my customer
