The Government of Nova Scotia will resume mail delivery through Canada Post starting on Friday.

The province says Access Nova Scotia centres will no longer be used as drop-off and pickup locations for essential provincial government correspondence, following the postal services more to rotating strikes earlier this month.

“Though mail delivery has restarted, people can still expect delays. To help avoid delays, people are encouraged to use online services when available,” the province said in a release. “Many programs and services offer several ways to correspond with the government and complete a service or transaction.”

Program and service information on the government website and forms and applications will inform people if they can complete the service or transaction online, by email or in person.
