There are various things. Alternate-day delivery was one of the options that was proposed. There were various types of options proposed by the task force to save money for the corporation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4542192\" data-originallang=\"en\">Even if all of those are implemented, they're still projecting some losses within the corporation. My question is to you as the representative of the business community in this area. To what extent would you be open to providing government subsidies to support the provision of the services?</p>",

Les solutions sont tr\u00e8s diverses. Il a aussi propos\u00e9 de ne livrer le courrier que tous les deux jours. Le groupe de travail a sugg\u00e9r\u00e9 \u00e0 la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 plusieurs fa\u00e7ons d'\u00e9conomiser.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4542192\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le groupe de travail souligne que m\u00eame en appliquant ces solutions, la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 subira encore des pertes. Je vous pose cette question parce que vous repr\u00e9sentez la communaut\u00e9 des affaires dans cette r\u00e9gion. Dans quelle mesure accepteriez-vous de fournir des subventions gouvernementales pour soutenir la prestation de ces services?</p>"
