Canada Post is moving on getting us more postal boxes and I have a very good contact who is working for us on this project. Things are moving but it will be done in stages. The first stage is we need to register all current box holders. Everyone who owns a box must come in and present proof of ownership of their property and an Id to the postmasters to register. The following is acceptable to register a PO Box:
- Driver’s license with address
- Utility bill, phone bill with address
- Tax assessment
- Care card or Provincial ID card with address
Anyone who wishes a PO box can come in and register on a separate sheet. Once we get all 230 current boxes registered and, hopefully, a large registration of people who want boxes. We will have a strong case to get more boxes. This process will go through ‘til Christmas, and when it is processed, we will then go to the next stage of acquiring the boxes.
Slow but sure, but we are getting there
