As post offices across the country lay unseasonably quiet, seven in ten Canadians say they’ve been impacted by the strike, according to a new Angus Reid poll.

Results also indicate that 34 percent of those surveyed side with Canada Post, while 29 percent support the unionized workers. Respondents who said they supported neither side polled at 23 percent, while 14 percent said they weren’t sure.
