I'm very much against that unless the private couriers actually become convienent. Right now, every time I ship something or have something shipped to me, I massively prefer Canada Post over UPS, Purolator, FedEx, etc. Because Canada Post delivers right in my neighbourhood, whereas the couriers, if I miss the delivery (which ALWAYS happens because they only ever try in the middle of the day on weekdays), make me go get the packages from some suburban depot in the middle of nowhere that takes me 2 hours to get to as I don't have a car. Oh, and I have to take time off work to go get them too because those depots are only open Monday-Friday 8-5. I'd support allowing them to compete with Canada Post ONLY if they were required by law:
-To have pickups on Saturday and at least one weekday evening
-To offer urban pickup locations
