Tories would Reconsider Decision to Close

Brian Pallister, post office critic for the Conservative Party, informed fellow members of Parliament in the House of Commons that " a Conservative Party government would review Canada Post's decision to close the Quebec City sorting centre." Pallister told the House, "It is unthinkable to us that the Montreal centre alone can provide consistent service quality across the province. The people of eastern Quebec deserve quality postal service, equivalent to that provided in the rest of the province." He gave the chair of the Quebec Conservative caucus, Josée Verner, credit for her work on this issue. Pallister also told MPs that the Conservatives intend to carry on this work in order to meet the needs of Quebeckers and deliver quality public service. (emphasis added)
