From the Margins spoke to Palecek about ongoing consultations, conducted by a federal government Task Force, on the future of Canada Post. One of these consultations, which are invite-only, took place in Bathurst, New Brunswick on October 6, 2016. The consultations are based on a discussion paper produced by the Task Force.
