In Toronto, small business owners are concerned about the potential effects of a Canada Post workers' strike on their operations, particularly for those heavily reliant on online sales and postal services. Don McCowan, owner of Wheels and Wings Hobbies, has expressed anxiety over the possibility of a strike due to existing challenges like U.S. tariffs and a potential recession. He indicated that the fear among customers of delayed shipping is already causing a decline in sales, prompting him to consider alternate courier services ahead of any labor disruptions, highlighting the precarious state of small businesses post-COVID.
It's very, very hard. We're spending too much time trying to keep our business going since COVID... We're always getting blocks.
We've notified our customers through our e-commerce site and through Facebook. And so, we're already seeing a downturn because they're afraid of getting their parcels locked into a warehouse.
