About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One autumn morning, a delivery driver arrived at Canada Post with an unusual package. As he opened the door, a small dog ran inside, barking excitedly and sniffing everything in sight. The delivery driver tried to catch the little fellow but ended up chasing him around the counter like a kid on Halloween. Turns out, it was just a neighbor’s pet who had mistakenly hopped into the wrong truck. After some confusion and laughter, everyone had a good laugh—even the normally gruff postal workers—and the dog eventually found his way home.

2. One day, while sorting mail, an old man called out, ‘Hey, kid! Have you seen my letter to Santa?’ The young clerk looked up, puzzled, and replied, ‘Um, no sir, I haven’t.’ The old man scratched his head and said, 'Oh well, maybe it got lost in the North Pole.' They both laughed, and from then on, every year around Christmas, the young clerk would keep a special eye out for letters addressed simply to 'Santa Claus, North Pole'.

3. Have you heard about the Canada Post employee who started delivering packages in pajamas? One morning, a regular noticed something odd when picking up his mail. It turned out that the delivery driver had accidentally swapped uniforms with someone from the night shift. The whole neighborhood burst into laughter when they saw him walking down the street, whistling and balancing a pile of letters on his head—all while wearing fluffy slippers and a sleep mask. From then on, everyone looked forward to seeing ‘Pajama Guy’ making his rounds.

4. One afternoon, as a postal worker sorted letters inside Canada Post, a small dog suddenly appeared, sniffing curiously around the counter. Nobody noticed him until he began enthusiastically licking every envelope marked ‘Free Gift’. Suddenly, an older gentleman, a regular customer, walked in and exclaimed, 'Oh my goodness, is that your new mascot?' The workers burst out laughing when they realized the dog had left behind a trail of salty kisses on half the town's Christmas cards. After some quick cleanup, everyone agreed it was the most memorable Free Gift ever.
