Pick Ups and Deliveries During Faculty Strike

On behalf of the Mailroom, I would like to notify/inform that due to ongoing faculty strike we are unable to receive any deliveries coming into the College and ship out couriers and mail. We have been notified by drivers from various courier companies and Canada Post that they have been turned around by the picketers at the picket line. This will  affect the mailroom operations and cause delays in receiving, delivering, shipping any parcels/couriers and mail. We ask for your patience and hope for a quick resolution so the operations can return back to normal.

Thank you.
