    The last time I shipped to David, good old Canada Post had us both concerned as the package seemed “stuck” in Stoney Creek Ontario, but hopefully that was a “one off” situ. Otherwise, stuff seems to be about a week from me to you. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Straight edge ethical question
