On the front page of this week's paper, you will see this notice: “A postal disruption could occur as soon as July 1, 2016. Canada Post Corporation and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers have not come to a labour agreement. This does not affect deliveries in Neepawa, as we do not use Canada Post in the Town of Neepawa. In case of a postal strike or lock-out, at all other locations, the Banner will be distributed by alternative means. We plan to have the paper distributed at numerous locations around the readership area. We will do everything we can to make sure the papers are distributed.
Thank for your support and patience.
