Due to an ongoing labour dispute between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, Canada Post has announced that mail will not be accepted or delivered across Canada until further notice.

The suspended service impacts all shipments to and from Canada handled by Canada Post, as well as shipments into Canada via other postal carriers. As a result there is likely to be a delay in the delivery of items to Canadian buyers or from Canadian sellers.

eBay would encourage any affected seller to notify affected customers of the likely delay to their purchases arriving and for buyers to please be patient during this time.

O mon dieu !

I nearly - nearly - NEARLY ordered something from Canada today.

I changed my mind when I saw the postage cost and ended up ordering from a French shop instead. What a good thing.
