Hi again! I'm back with a simple but perhaps a (very) stupid question is in order.
So, with the Canada Post strike ceased by back-to-work legislation, I figure I can ask this question now:
So, when China Post "passed" my parcel onto the airline (or a depot where parcels go to wait while being accepted to an airline to board), it literally happened around just before (by an hour or 2 or maybe 3) before Canada Post called out to International UPU members to cease sending mail to Canada. My parcel is to be boarded (or already has been, that's the question (or not)) from Guangzhou, Guangdong to Toronto (Mississauga) at the Pearson International Airport. So, with my (bad or good) luck of the draw, I have to ask, did my parcel actually get sent to Toronto at the last very possible airline before they ceased, or is it the first to be placed in a warehouse in Guangzhou waiting for Canada Post (at the time on November 16th) to give the OK to return shipping parcels to Canada? If it did make the (perhaps very last) flight from Guangzhou to Mississauga (internationally they call it a part of Toronto), how will I know? Does the message imply that my parcel was on the very last flight from China to Canada before ceasing parcel and mail transfer at the behest of Canada Post? Also, if the mail parcel missed the window, with the strike ended, how long do you think it will or could take for my parcel o be shipped? My apologies for all of the questions my friends ^^
BTW, My Parcel uses ePacket (as I was told), and your tracking information confirms it.
Tracking Number: LM240126910CN
BTW, I also used the International Tracker, it says "On Route/En Route": http://track-chinapost.com/result_global.php?code=LM240126910CN -- Does this mean it made it to a warehouse in Mississauga/Toronto at Pearson waiting for customs to scan it in?
I know that Canada Post did say it can take up to March of 2019 for mail parcels to be back to normal (from all the backlog), and I'm an extremely patient person, so I'm not not in a panic on making the parcel arrive before Christmas as I have no control over that. However, what do you think about all this? If I must wait until March, OK that is fine, it's important but it's not "I need this now or else" -- it's merely 2 identical sound cards from China that I ordered off eBay, and I'm good with what I have now, these are for my other computers that I am building and I am in no rush to complete them (OK, I prefer them to be done in about 6-9 months, but that's far from the current date (November 30, 2018). I'm leaning towards Summer 2019 of having them complete, so I'm in no rush, just merely curious if my parcels made it before the cut-off?
Again, thank you so much for this, it is a huge wall of text and I am merely curious on exactly what is going on. I humbly and graciously appreciate it my good friends!
