NOTICE: Utility Bills Amid Canada Post Strike

The Town of Thorsby has received information that Canada Post has changed their rules regarding local postage amidst the on-going strike. Canada Post has now determined that they will not deliver local mail to local Post Office boxes in addition to not delivering to non-local locations. This decision has nothing to do with the Town of Thorsby.
