Canada Post strike? lockout?
What to do?!
I don’t know if you’ve been following the Canada Post news but I’ve been watching it anxiously.
Canada Post is in negotiations with the Canadian Union of Postal Workers and, if things are not settled in the next few days, a labour disruption - strike or lockout - could happen as soon as Saturday July 2nd. Here’s the latest news update from Canada Post.

tell me that you love them all
Not sure what you’re in the mood for? Are you reading through our coffee selections and thinking “they all sound good!”? Well there is a solution!
We created the Sparkplug Coffee Sampler so you can try them all. It puts together generous 200 g bags (almost 1/2 lb. for you old school peeps) of our 3 signature blends plus the current feature coffee. That’s 800 g of coffee altogether - almost 2 pounds and enough of each to get a good sense of how you like each one.
We are super stoked to be selected as the Official Coffee of the Motorcycle Supershow!
To celebrate, we're custom building a special blend - Up Shift - just for the Motorcycle Supershow. We'll have samples to try at the show and you'll be able to take a bag home or order some for delivery after the show.
January 8, 9 & 10, 2016 at the Toronto International Centre

Featuring the Fuss Studio Blend Coffee
Summertime - time for a new 'do and a new feature coffee. And we're super stoked to be featuring the Fuss Studio blend!
We created the Fuss Studio Blend for our fave local salon and early Sparkplug Coffee customer, Fuss Hair Studio to brew up in the salon.
Now you can get that Fuss coffee deliciousness at home in between new 'dos.
Buy Fuss Studio Blend, Make A Difference
We're donating a portion of sales of the Fuss Studio Blend coffee to the Toronto Humane Society, picked because the Fuss crew are big pet lovers and the THS provides such a valuable service.
Buy some coffee and help a dog, cat or bunny - what a sweet deal!
