Kinda wanna order another package from CP so see the packages snail mail race to me and see which comes faster

I ordered 3 packages back in May in the same day from 3 different online stores.

The first one was from a town in the same province, 85km away from me and took 10 business days (2 weeks).

The second one was from a town in the same province, 120km from me and arrived at the same time, 10 business days later.

Both were from Ontario, to Ontario, expedited parcel. Both were held up for around 7 days in Mississauga, and then 2 travel days at post offices on either side.

The third package that I ordered at the same time in May was from across the country in Vancouver. After being shipped, it took 3 days to get from Vancouver to Mississauga, and spent 10 days in Mississauga, and 2 days at the local post office.

So 15 days total from across the country, 12 days total from the same province. Small packages, under 2lb.

Never using Canada Post again. FedEX has always been pretty reliable, UPS is good in most cities but bad in some others. Use one of those if you have to order shit.
