    My box is out for delivery!

    So if you live somewhere that is roughly a 40 hour drive from Toronto, in a city that has both an NHL and CFL team you may have a box waiting for you when you get home.

    So I checked the tracking information and by box isn't slated to land until May 6th. Doh!

    Ah well...

    HINT: My box is heading to a province that has at least one team that has qualified for the NHL playoffs...

    So maybe I don't understand how Canada Post works, or maybe their tracking system sucks but yesterday my package was in transit in the nearest major centre to my target... Yet somehow the package still won't be delivered until May 6th??

    I guess they must be using sloth based transportation for the last 100 miles...

    I wouldnt be worried about this. I had package that were supposed to be delivered in 7 days and ended up being delivered after 4.
