"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds. Bears do, though. We don't mess with bears." — Unofficial motto of the Canada Post.

On Sept. 23, a postal worker left a note on Matthew Fane's Vancouver-area mailbox stating that they were unable to deliver a package to his door due to a "bear at door."

Ok, fair enough @canadapostcorp that’s a decent reason to not drop the package off at my door. pic.twitter.com/ykAldpWpEP — M Fane (@IamFane) September 24, 2014

While simple and to the point, it seems like a surprisingly calm message considering the fact that there was a bear at the door. Maybe something along the lines of "DO NOT GO HOME THERE IS A BEAR THERE" or "OMG A BEAR IS POSSIBLY INSIDE OF YOUR HOUSE RUN" would seem more fitting, but that's just not how this Canada post employee does business.

According to Canada.com, the bear was likely a grizzly or black bear, which are frequently spotted around Fane's home in British Columbia.

For what it's worth, Fane found the whole ordeal to be quite hilarious, refusing to offer more information when the Canada Post reached out to investigate on Twitter.

@canadapostcorp how come? The service was great - just thought it was funny. — M Fane (@IamFane) September 24, 2014

The ordeal is, perhaps, the best case yet for Amazon drone delivery.
