The final days leading up to Christmas can be stressful but add a second lockdown, and trying to get last-minute gifts becomes much more difficult.
Some shoppers thought they had prepared well, only to find delays with Canada Post. Toronto resident John McAteer told blogTO he ordered items online from Sporting Life on Dec. 7, only to find on Dec. 17 that his order had not been picked up by Canada Post.
