  "account": "OTTAWA – Canada Post disclosed a $277 million pre-tax loss in the second quarter of 2026, marking an improvement from the $407 million loss incurred during the same period last year. The postal service credits labour stability and lower operating costs for the reduced financial setback this year, as new collective agreements were ratified in June. Meanwhile, Canada Post’s revenue for the first half of 2026 decreased by $159 million or seven per cent, with a pre-tax loss of $482 million compared to $448 million in the same period of 2025.",
