Canada's month-long postal strike impacted charities, which rely on the last few months of the year for much of their donations
Canada's premiers are requesting the federal government extend the deadline for claiming charitable donations for 2024 due to the significant impact the month-long postal strike had on charities' ability to receive donations. Essentially, the strike disrupted the normal flow of donations often received by charities in the final months of the year, and the premiers are advocating for an extension to allow people to still support these organizations.
