It was most troublesome for elderly people who still rely a lot on the mail.

Well, elderly people also vote the most, and some of them are poor and sympathetic and will go on the media.

The Air Canada strike is another recent example, if you don't like that one.

I wouldn’t worry too much about people complaining. People always find things to complain about.

Sure, we shouldn't. It's basically your whole job to worry if you're an politician in a democracy, though, and it's whoever's in government at the moment that gets blamed. (Even if everything goes fine people will eventually hate you!)
