Postal Address Changes |

Civic Addressing Conversion A communiqué was sent from Canada Post to all of the local municipal officials in the Townships of McDougall, McKellar, Seguin, The Archipelago, and the Town of Parry Sound regarding the civic addressing and realignment project that incorporates the municipality's name as part of the mailing address. In some case the current postal codes have been preserved and in other circumstances new postal codes have been issued. The new civic address name and postal code addressing will take affect on February 20th, 2012. Customer letters have started going out communicating to each of the residents the mailing address changes. Each customer will receive free change of address cards with their letter. Customers will also receive several reminder letters over the course of a one year period commencing on February 20th, 2012 to make sure they utilize their new mailing addresses. Canada Post will honour the delivery of any mail that comes in with the old or new addressing during the one year grace period. Note : After one year if the customer is still receiving mail with an old mailing address it will be returned to sender. ( February 20th, 2013 ). Customer Q & A - Civic Addressing Conversion. Backgrounder
For many years, mail delivery in the area has been performed by using only customer names and rural route numbers or a combination of rural route numbers and civic addressing. Starting FEBRUARY 20, 2012 Canada Post will discontinue the use of rural route numbers in the area and will officially implement the use of civic (911) addresses for mail delivery. This change will also include the use of the official municipality name assigned to your address instead of the municipality name you are currently using. Please notify your correspondents of your new address as of the effective date (most businesses will not accept your address change, by telephone or online, if notification is done prior to the effective date). To assist with this change, Canada Post will forward mail bearing your old address to you for one year. Canada Post will provide customers with postage-paid Change of Address cards to complete and send to your correspondents (additional cards are available at your local Post Office). Canada Post apologizes for the inconvenience and thanks you for your assistance during this transition.
