: There are, however, two recently installed mailbox pads nearby, one less than a block away, according to The Chronicle Herald. An online map showed the box the keys were for is about a kilometer from us, across a busy commuting road at the foot of a steep hill on which we live. Today I received a package from Montreal containing three keys to our new box, with a location that is not a street in our neighborhood. Since there a community near there, I suspect the keys were meant for a home down there. Hopefully businesses providing better boxes will spring up and I’ll have my mail delivered to one of them. No local number to call, of course — just an 800 number in Montreal. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
