Sandwich Day

November 3 is celebrated every year as Sandwich Day.

The ultimate in convenient food and one of the most beloved food around the world, it is no surprise that the humble sandwich has it own day.

The unofficial holiday commemorates the birth anniversary of John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich. Rumor has it that the modern day version of the sandwich came about when Montagu’s servants put some meat between two slices of bread as a way for the Earl to eat his meal while gambling.

What To Do

  • Eat sandwiches for all your meals. Have a bacon and egg sandwich for breakfast, an egg salad sandwich for lunch, a roast beef sandwich for dinner and an ice cream sandwich for desert.
  • Gourmet up your sandwich by adding gourmet ingredients like bacon jam, goat cheese and roasted beets.
  • Make a grilled cheese sandwich instead of just a normal sandwich.

Potential Canada Post Strike

 Potential Canada Post Strike Could Impact Holiday Deliveries and Government Cheques

Attention Canada! 📬 Canada Post workers are currently in negotiations for a new contract, and there’s a possibility of a strike if an agreement isn’t reached by this Sunday. If talks fall through, the union could legally initiate strike action with just 72 hours’ notice.

What Could This Mean for You?

  • Holiday Deliveries : With the holiday season approaching, package delays could be significant if a strike begins. If you’re planning to send gifts or important packages, consider mailing them early to avoid delays.
  • Government Cheques : Government-issued payments, including pension and disability cheques, could also face delays. For those relying on these essential services, it’s especially important to be aware of potential disruptions.

What’s Next? The clock is ticking for Canada Post and the union to find common ground before the Sunday deadline. Let’s hope for a swift resolution that ensures timely deliveries and reliable service through the busy season.

Stay tuned for updates, and consider alternative mailing options if needed.
