    The post office is open on saturdays but weather they have mail being transported is a mystery I would think so otherwise the volume of mail on a monday morning would be incredible. no for sure answers for you though sorry.

    I do know fedex goes 7 days a week, I knew a guy who worked there on nights.

    you sure about that? Cause I'm pretty sure canada post doesn't do any sort of delivery or transport on weekends...could be wrong I guess

    and Ontario mail service is no different from the other 9 provinces and 3 territories, it's a federal service ;)

    peace

    a distance like that I'd say expect a delivery time of 3 to 4 days from date of send

    the thing is that time is about the same even if it were comming from out west, maybe tack on a day or two, most of the distance the mail travels happens in a day. It's the sorting and sending from the distribution centre to a local post office which takes the time.

    hope that helps

    peace
