Attention: Mile Zero-Banner Post readers

Due to the ongoing negotiations between Canada Post and the CUPW Union, the Union has decided on the following work stoppage action: That their members will not be delivering flyers or unaddressed newspapers effective September 15th at 12:01 am.

This directly impacts you if you have a mailbox in Manning, Deadwood, Dixonville, North Star, Notikewan & Hotchkiss. To mitigate this situation, we will have FREE newspapers available the County of Northern Lights office and at North Town Esso on Thursday, September 18, 2025.

If you live in Grimshaw, Peace River, Berwyn, Brownvale (or anywhere else outside of the Manning area) the newspapers will be delivered as usual. Nothing will change for you.

We are open Wednesday through Friday, 9 am to Noon, and 1pm - 5pm. Our toll free number is (877) 926-2099 or 780-926-2000.

Thank you for your patience during this time.
