More than 55,000 Canada Post workers have been off the job since Nov. 15 , stopping the delivery of mail and parcels to people, businesses and charities.

Banks are urging customers to switch to online statements and e-banking to stay on top of their statements and credit card bills.

Canada Post will continue to deliver some government benefit cheques, such as the Canada Child Benefit , Canada Pension Plan and old age security, even during the job action.

Canada Post has removed the initial deadline of Dec. 6 to mail a letter to Santa .

The Vancouver General Hospital and UBC Hospital Foundation’s Millionaire Lottery said its lottery brochure mail-out and ticket sales were affected.

EmailSanta.com offers a free, instant way for kids to send their letters to Santa.com .
