Anyone know if Canadian Post Offices accept "general delivery" packages and if they do how long do they hold the package?

General Delivery or Poste Restante as it is normally called outside of the US.
Normally you need a passport to pick it up.

I've used it in many countries with no problems. (as long as i sent it to myself so i know where it is addressed to, in some languages that is not so simple)
