Canada Post To Deliver 7 Days For Holiday Season

Canada Post Increases Delivery Schedule

Just saw on the news that Canada Post will be increasing delivery of packages to Canadian addresses to seven days per week for this holiday season. They made this decision due to the increase in online shopping and this increase in schedule will help ensure that packages will arrive by Christmas.

Canada Post has added extra shifts to accommodate this increase but they have said that the extra deliveries on Saturdays and Sundays will be for parcels only, not letters.

Get Native American Art and Inuit Art Orders In Now

What this means for Canadian addresses is that orders for Native American art (actually Northwest Indian art from the Pacific west coast in BC) and Inuit art at Free Spirit Gallery should be put in right away. In fact, Canada Post said that shipments should be sent out be December 11 at the latest to ensure Christmas delivery to Canadian addresses.

They didn’t mention the timing for United States or overseas destinations but I would assume that they would like to see shipments outside of Canada even earlier. So now that the fall 2010 collection of new Northwest Indian art carvings are in as well as prints, I would highly suggest that orders be made sooner or later in order to get your artwork by Christmas.

Canadian First Nations Art Eagle Print

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

#art #canadian #canada #firstnations - Here is a wonderful Canadian First Nations art print of an eagle and sun in the Northwest Native style by artist Ron Victor LaRochelle. I managed to get three copies of this limited edition print.

I sold two copies through Free Spirit Gallery and kept one for myself. Since the artist already did a circle around the eagle, I decided to continue this circular design with a custom mat at the framers and the result is show below.

This Canadian First Nations artwork piece is hanging near my entrance hallway. How do you like it?

#canadian #firstnations - Here is the head of a Canadian First Nations art carving of a salmon by Gary Baker of Squamish Nation, BC. It has a very distinctive look especially with the eye which is quite prominent in all of Gary’s carvings.
