Eric Ham: Canada beware, Trump’s Venezuela invasion is a clear warning shot - CTV News

Amazon appears to be past its prime.

Several Christmas orders I placed are now listed as undeliverable.

Apparently others are having the same issue.

Unrelated, USPS in the USA seems to be having major issues, delays, loosing items.

Interestingly, Canada Post seems to have got its act together.
