I feel like they might be a little late to the party on building an online storefront but better late than never.
Obviously this is the first kick at the can and would be nice to see this evolve into something that can promote and support Canadian small businesses. But this is Canada post so I won’t hold my breath.
I’ve sworn off Amazon, and would love it if a Canadian specific online aggregated shop popped up. One that gives more exposure to Canadian small businesses, and uses our national postal service to deliver the packages.
Unfortunately, that would first require them to start delivering packages. Their track record on that is pretty shit. Like, only succeeding twice in 8 years shit. And it’s not because my place is hard to deliver to. Every other company seems to be able to deliver with no issues except Canada Post.
