What the! After reading this thread, I finally found mine between some A&W coupons and a Canadian Tire flyer. Now I am sure it may have been delivered a few weeks ago! It is so tiny!

Actually, I do not mind the size, the readability is fine. But the size may contribute to excessive lossage in between other flyers during delivery.

Lithograving - Mr Phillips is perhaps the least communicative public servant in Canada. I have made I don't know how many submissions (not complaints) to him over the years and he simply ignores them.

In case anyone is keeping track, my copy arrived today (23 Jan 14).

Also, a couple things I didn't quite catch in the above posts...

The new SIZE is aboot 5.75" x 8.25" and the one I received is ENGLISH only.

Kirk, according to Mr Phillips (Director, Stamp Services)
this "digest" format is "easier to hold and read" (page 4 )
compare to the old standard size 8˝" X 11" format.
Oh yeah, sure.


I also received the English only version whereas
I think one forum member from Quebec received the
bi lingual version.

I guess Canada is no longer bi-lingual.
Which is actually true since we're now a multi-lingual
country, at least in the urban areas.
