@OttawaMorning I don't see any problem with the community mailbox program. Even if you don't want to walk, it's not hard to stop in your car

—@GrahamCrakers

@OttawaMorning Love the community box here in Kanata. Dry mail, meeting with neighbors, &c.

—@jeffrossbooks

@OttawaMorning @Mike_Palecek I like the new community mailboxes, way more secure! I've had mail stolen from our mailbox a few times to many!

—@Snagglefoot

@OttawaMorning let people pay for door to door mail service, maybe 1 stamp per day. Still cheap but it proves they want it.

—@JimLeask

@OttawaMorning I'm ok with comm mailboxes. I'd like to know of those complaining who still gets paper bills & regularly sends letters/cards.

—@chatshell

@OttawaMorning Our family regularly sends cards and parcels via #CanadaPost...but we are an anomaly amongst our friends.

—@chatshell

@OttawaMorning been using community mailbox in Nepean for over 30 years - it is superior to door to door in many ways!

@OttawaMorning I don't want to lose my home delivery. No community mailboxes

—@shehryarsarwar

@ottawamorning only those who had door to door before sometime in the early 80s still have door-to-door door delivery: I've never had it.

—@philandrecheck

I like my "home delivery" too, but I have to walk abt 700ft to get to my mailbox ;) @OttawaMorning

—@pam_luvs_wine

@OttawaMorning I am wondering who is going to shovel out the snow bank in front of my super mailbox when the plows pass by

—@gor55mcg

@billb118 @OttawaMorning for the majority of people they are completely fine.

@OttawaMorning please return door 2 door. Ongoing hassle especially in winter & vehicles blocking access. Not Nice pic.twitter.com/999P0Fy5Si
