805 out of 37,000,000 people and you bankrupt the CFL, not to mention all the other damage. Right.

Be careful on that descent from Mt. Stupid. Dunning-Kruger Land is unforgiving territory and very few can traverse the Valley of Despair. Best of luck. I hope you didn't pack too much tinfoil.

Do you not think they should shut down a place when there's an outbreak? Do you think people should be forced to work when sick and infectious to everyone around them? 

How else will I get my dominos pizza flyer?

But seriously, mail is pretty essential still. So it isn't as cut and dried as just close it down.

Not a chance. Canada Post's volumes are sufficiently high enough to warrant a 5-day per week schedule, especially with the rise in online shopping thanks to Amazon, eBay, Rakuten, etc.
