Media advocacy group says Canada Post’s commercial flyer delivery expansion plan unfairly undercuts newspapers

Canada Post’s access to lockboxes in apartments and condos gives it an “unfair advantage” over newspapers, for whom flyer distribution is a primary revenue source, said a statement Thursday from News Media Canada (NMC), a print and digital media advocacy group. The group called on the federal government to block the plan. Canada Post, meanwhile, said other distributors can access apartment buildings with permission. (The Logic)
