This Is A Perfectly Good Reason For Not Delivering A Package

Opposing Views – by Jonathan Wolfe

It’s common for a delivery man not to be able to drop off a package – usually because no one is home. But in the wild world of Vancouver, Canada packages go undelivered for much more exotic reasons. Like bears.

A Canada Post delivery man left a note on a man’s property with a very reasonable explanation for why his package wasn’t at his door.  

“Bear at door,” the note said.

The house’s resident couldn’t help but share a picture of the note with the web.

Here it is:

Fur real?! Matthew Fane, of British Columbia, appreciated a Canada Post employee's excuse for not delivering a parcel he has been expecting after encountering a bear outside his house

For good measure, the Canada Post deliverer snapped a picture of the bear. You can’t blame them for not wanting to tangle with this:

Canada Post reached out to the home’s resident and said they wanted to investigate the story. The homeowner, Matthew Fane, said that’s not necessary.

“The service was great,” he tweeted. “Just thought it was funny.”

  1. If it was in the US, they would have called the cops who would have shot it down to pieces and declared a “shelter in place”, etc. etc.

    In any case, funny article.
