Canada as well. There's been pushes to privatize the postal service so they can race to the bottom for profit.

It's very saddening that people fall for this and delude themselves into thinking companies will compete to provide a better service.

Yep, look at phone companies, healthcare, prisons and ISP's in the US to see how privatizing these things shakes out. It's not pretty.
