will be $3.55 for a 25-pouriii
item between Atlantic provinces
and the western region of
Alberta-B.C.-Yukon.
In announcing the revision,
Mr. Kierans noted that parcels
weighing up to six pounds make
up approximately 80% of
Canadian parcel post traffic and
that increases in these weight
ranges will vary from ten to 20
cents per parcel. The impact of
this increase, on the basis of an
individual who mails a
half-dozen one-to-two pound
parcels a year, is estimated at $1.
per person per year.
Included in the new rate
structure is an adjustment of the

Offices and Fleet Mail Offices
which have not been changed
since the introduction of that
service in 1951. The new rates
effective 1st January 1970 will
be 50 cents for the first 2 lbs.,
15 cents each additional pound.
On October 1, Stirface parcel"
post rates from Canada to
countries other than the U.S.
will be increased. The changes
will reduce the number of
international rate zones from
three to two and the current
system of four weight groups
will be discarded for a simple
pound-by-pound progression.
At the same time, in order, to
simplify the rate structure, the
current Air Parcel Post
(domestic) category will be
abolished, since late in 1968 air
transmission was extended to all
domestic first-class mail, Air
parcels now receive the same
handling, despatch and
transportation priorities as
first-class mail and post office
customers will be able to secure
air transmission of parcels by
normal first-class postage rates.
Also on October 1, parcel
rates to the United States will be
increased. The minimum rate
will remain at 15 cents up to
one-half pound, while for items
from eight ounces to a pound
will be 75 cents as compared to
the present 45 cents. From there
on the rates will be applied in a
simple progression of 25 cents
for each additional pound or
fraction thereof,
