Delivery of Vital Government Mail during Postal Strike

The P-E-I government says it has alternative pickup and delivery methods during the Canada Post strike for cheques and other important information that it issues.  It says social program payments made by cheque were kept out of the Canada Post system to minimize disruption.  The province will provide information about alternative delivery methods for mail related to services such as social assistance, medical test results, maintenance enforcement and worker’s compensation benefits.  Many Islanders have already received information about direct deposit options, offering a convenient alternative for receiving payments.
