Canada Post opened a new office in Membertou today.
It’s the second pilot location to open under what the Crown Corporation calls a community hub model.
It says community hubs are intended to provide Indigenous, rural or northern communities access to important products and services, and help people and businesses in the communities better connect with others.
The Membertou Community Hub serves about 1,700 people living in and outside the community.
The hub at Unit 1 – 90 San’tele’sew Awti is staffed by two full-time employees from Membertou, with the support of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers.
