Canada Post says Santa’s letters are getting through
According to Canada Post, millions of little Canadians who write to Santa with their wish lists will get a response this year. A month-long strike by over 50,000 postal workers last year meant Santa couldn’t respond to letters, but don’t worry kids, Santa is reading every one.
Canada Post spokesman Phil Legault says more than one million letters are delivered to and from Santa each year. Under the Santa letters program, all letters with the HOH OHO postal code mailed by Dec. 8 will be delivered. “It is a busy time for our postal elves,” Legault said in an email to CTV on Monday. “Our employees love seeing the letters addressed to Santa Claus pass through our postal system.”
Canada Post and the union representing its mail carriers announced last month they had reached agreements in principle after two years of bargaining.
