About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was an unusually quiet morning in Midland when a delivery driver pulled up to the Canada Post office. The sun had barely risen over the mountains, casting long shadows across the parking lot. As he approached the door, the delivery driver noticed something odd—an old man wearing a plaid shirt and carrying a thermos was standing outside, humming to himself. 'Morning,' said the driver politely. The man looked up, startled, then smiled sheepishly. 'Oh, hello there! Just waiting for them to open so I can mail my letter to the North Pole.' Turns out, every Christmas, this neighbor sent a card to Santa, and today was no exception.
2. It was a slow afternoon at Midland’s only post office when a regular approached the counter and asked, ‘Do you deliver packages to Canada?’ The clerk replied, ‘Of course we do!’ but something seemed off. The clerk smiled and said, ‘Absolutely! We deliver everywhere in Canada.’ Just then, an old delivery driver walked up and whispered, ‘Actually, boss, that package is for your desk.’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the regular who had started it all.
3. A little girl walked into the Midland Mountain Canada Post one day, her eyes wide with wonder as she watched the mailman sorting letters. She pointed excitedly and asked, ‘Why do some envelopes fly?’ The mailman smiled down at her and explained, 'Those aren't flying, sweetie—they're just airmail!' The little girl nodded thoughtfully, then ran outside to show her friends. From that day on, whenever anyone asked why some envelopes seemed to be flying, they’d say, 'Oh, you know—Midland Mountain Canada Post!'
4. A delivery driver pulled up to the old Midland Mountain Canada Post one rainy morning. As he stepped out of the truck, he noticed something peculiar on the wet pavement—a large envelope, its address partially obscured by mud. He picked it up, shook off the mud, and opened it curiously. Inside was a letter addressed to 'The Best Mailman in Midland Mountain.' It read: "Dear Sir/Madam,\nWe regret to inform you that our postal service has been discontinued due to lack of mail." Below were two crisp Canadian dollars and a smiley face drawn in ink. A regular neighbor had clearly taken matters into his own hands.
