Kids, don’t forget letters to Santa

Local Canada Post employees are hoping youngsters will send their letters to Santa by dropping them off at their nearest post office.

In past years, they’ve collected letters during the Christmas Parade, but this year, without the parade, they’re encouraging kids to write letters and drop them in a mailbox.

Letters have already arrived at the post office and are on their way to the North Pole, and postal elves are busy helping Santa with his mail.

The post office is encouraging kids to write their letters, including a return address, and mail them to the North Pole before Dec. 10, in time to hear back from Santa.

Santa’s mailing address is: Santa Claus, North Pole, H0H 0H0, Canada.

There is also a special mailbox on Queen Street, outside the Court House by the entrance to the NOTL Chamber of Commerce office.
