It will affect business but then business can use postage as a business expense anyhow. However, if Canada Post improves service for business, then they will benefit there.

The average citizen will complain but not change their habits too much. But any organization that does mass mailing - businesses, charities, arts groups, etc. - will reconsider. It may be a 'business expense' but it's still a bigger expense than it was before.
