I'm so not sure what it's like but i hope the settle on some type of solution.

I work at CP so let me chime in.
The new system they have in place now is there are staff that stay inside the mail depot and manually sort in mail such as magazines, redirected letters, oversized mail and addressed admail. Then there are letter carriers that go out to deliver. They just grab the manually sorted mail, the mail sorted electronically at the processing facility (the one at YVR), the packets and parcels, load it all up in their vehicle and go out and deliver
CP letter carriers have key access to mailrooms and letter boxes as well as entry inside private residences and business buildings as well. They deliver your mail, flyers, small packets and parcels all at once on the same day while out on the route.
Other couriers don't have that luxury of access, so they have to deliver in person or they just throw it on the floor by the mail panels and go
