I customer has just informed me of a fee of $2450 assess to his tobacco order. I told him to have it sent for reassessment and he replied "the post office said they don't know how to do that"

Is there some additional information I can add to the outside of the package to instruct the Canada Post as to how to do this?...or is there a form I can send to the buyer that he/she can take to the post office describing the process?

Thanks,

Silly laws make a pissed off citizen.

Omg. I just want to mention, seeing as this would scare me, the insane duty applied is a mistake. A headache, I'm sure, but the duty rates in Canada for whole leaf tobacco has not changed. My guess is that a green customs officer read "raw tobacco", and figured it should be green or otherwise uncured. I'd also like to add that I've ordered close to 8 times ? And never had a problem like this.

You're kidding, right?

They don't have to find them. They make them. By the millions. First they pay by the head for losers to breed more losers. Then they train them up carefully, starting with 13 years mandatory education. Then they hire them. The first and most important lesson you learn in school is shut up and sit still. You can flunk English, knock up your girlfriend, snort smarties, post a selfie of yourself taking a dump, chant rap "music", fail simple arithmetic... you can still graduate. But just try thinking for yourself, standing up and opening your mouth.






There's a word for it now: idiocracy.

The chap's MP just might be able to help this situation. We have an election coming......for some reason that gets faster action.....

But then, maybe he (or she) is one of the 20% who have announced they are not running again.... they're quitting to qualify for the generous pension package currently in place. It's being reduced in the near future; I'm told the cuts would cost the retirees close to a million dollars in benefits if they delay.....
