Change to Consumers’ Choice program regarding community newspapers
Canada Post respects Canadians’ choices when it comes to receiving unaddressed advertising mail delivered by their postal service. That’s why our Consumers’ Choice program offers a simple way for Canadians to stop receiving it.
Community newspapers are currently exempted from the Consumers’ Choice program. However, to respect Canadians’ choices, we are updating our approach to the delivery of community newspapers that contain commercial inserts. Effective January 8, 2024, community newspapers with commercial inserts or enclosures will no longer be delivered to addresses that are signed up for the Consumers’ Choice program.
We will continue to deliver public interest materials to all addresses. This includes community newspapers (and community newspapers with inserts of a public interest nature). It also includes mailings from elected representatives, political parties, government departments and agencies at the federal, provincial, territorial and municipal levels, as well as band councils. Visit canadapost.ca/consumerschoice to learn more.
Consumers’ Choice Acknowledgement Notice (33-086-558) will be updated to reflect this change.
Important notice: Removing plastic from Neighbourhood Mail
As part of our commitment to the greener good, one of our goals is to eliminate the use of plastic packaging in unaddressed mail. We continue to work with the Direct Mail industry to reduce the use of plastic in Neighbourhood Mail items. As part of this ongoing effort, we are informing all industry partners that, starting in mid-2025, we will no longer be accepting Neighbourhood Mail wrapped in plastic. Canada Post will share further information about this initiative to help customers with the transition.

Full details on all recent and upcoming improvements to our Smartmail Marketing and Commercial Mail services are available at canadapost.ca/notice.
We recognize that any price adjustment has an impact on the customers we proudly serve. We don’t take that lightly and do our best to minimize the impact of price increases.
We truly appreciate your business and value the trust you place in us. Thank you for choosing Canada Post.
