Canada Post is experiencing a service disruption due to a national strike. Operations will be shut down for the duration of the strike, leading to delays in service. As a result, residents will not receive water bills, tax statements, cheques, or any municipal letters via Canada Post mail. During this time all documents will be held at the municipal office for pick up during business hours and all payment due dates will remain the same, regardless of bills being received by regular mail. Alternatively, residents are encouraged to sign up for electronic billing where possible.
Sign up for e-billing for water and tax bills by visiting Meaford.ca/eBilling.
