I posted  a  birthday  card  to  my  brother  Vincent  in Canada on June 21 as he celebrated his 80th birthday on July 5.

However, almost a month later the card has not yet arrived. When I complained to Maltapost I was told that mail to Canada is sent to Italy, which is then forwarded to Canada.

Is Maltapost paying for such a service? Cards sent to Canada at Christmas also arrive late.

It seems a shame to throw such money down the drain. Perhaps it is better to send e-cards, which are free and arrive on time.
