As a Canadian, I like to hear what is going on in other countries from real people rather than the gov’t released bits the news passes on . As long as we keep it friendly, and just here in roll call, I hope we can continue.

I just got an email saying the library book I have on hold is in and given the reduced library hours, so one more careful opening. Moonki

Here's the  "Delivering For America" Bill (as it stands now, subject to change):

So I read that and it seems to OK as far as it goes.

However, it does not address the shortage of postal workers (whatever the cause - firing, attrition, no new hires, folks staying home because of fear of COVID, etc. and the need to hire new, perhaps temporary workers for any surge because of mail-in ballots).

It seems to me (as a Canadian observer and one of your upstairs neighbours) that your President is using the American Post Office as his primary tactic (he has many more underhanded and illegal tactics in his arsenal) to subvert the outcome of the November election.

Hey all is not smooth sailing up here either. Personally, if Canada had elections this year (or indeed until this is over -I would not vote in person at a polling station)

But

I pray for all the good folks in the USA.

The cause is simple.

Trump appointed a fellow crony to run the post office.

And it turns out that man has tens of millions invested in companies that rival the US Postal Service.

If the post office collapses, Dejoy cashes in.

They just don't know!

Y'all wear masks, or not.  Just don't come around me if you don't.

you know the drill, play, play, play and play some more, beg for gifts.....we will be there to help....
