According to the press release, the postal service has committed to earmarking $1 billion in investments to cut emissions and electrify its fleet. The Canada Post also said it plans to reach 50% electrification of its fleet by 2030.
“We have a responsibility to Canadians, and to their children and grandchildren, to help lead the way to a more sustainable future,” said Canada Post CEO Doug Ettinger.
