Postal Services Still On Hold
Canada Post is still at a standstill on strike action, with no breakthroughs in bargaining.

"There is some colour, there's maybe some planning involved you know, everything is neat and tidy and you look at it and you go 'wow you know, these people enjoy gardening.' Of course if things are done well you know you have a few shrubs, you have a few perenials and you have a few annuals. I mean know it just makes the front of your house just pop."
This year's main focus was just the front yard.
Joyce Lazaruk has received the hanger for her third year in a row, and is thrilled for being recognized again.
"I don't think of it as work, it's a hobby. I enjoy it. I remember doing a vegetable garden when I was in 4-H when I was 8-years-old and my mom always did it."
Ted Colledge and his wife were also recognized and he says it's a wonderful feeling to be getting recognition.
"We put plenty of work in the front and in the back, so this keeps us old folks going."
Communities in Bloom members have until tomorrow to hand out all the hangers and submit the recipients to the city.
