Can’t strike in this country gouvernement indirectly makes it illegal.

Striking for more wages and better working conditions when your employer is bleeding red ink and losing market share.
I feel for the workers but at some point the mess that is Canada Post cannot continue.

Pretty soon there isn’t anyone in Canada that will be able to strike. Everybody will be forced to binding arbitration/mediators.

Canada Post knows the feds will force them back to work. They do every time.

What a way to blame employees and not the management for multi-billion debacle. Morally degrading and borderline insulting to work for so-called free enterprise.

“Unfortunately, the mediator was appointed via registered mail in August, but Canada Post failed to deliver the mail on time until 2 months later, citing that it was drizzling on a few days”

Remember there is always 2 books.
1 real one for the CRA and the other one is for management to sell to the media and employees.
Manufactured crisis. Just like the rail strike.

The wage offer doesn’t cover the cost of living over the life of the agreement. They have been crippled in their ability to have a revenue neutral business. They lose money on many parcel deliveries, so it turns into a business subsidy. If you want to help the businesses that way, fine, but don’t then pretend they need to be profitable.
They have also removed their ability to grow into other areas and provide services, such as banking, to underserviced communities.
This is still being run by a Harper accolyte who wants to privatize it. They have one of their stooges on CBC right now saying how they need to sell it out to Loblaws and Sobeys right now, cut delivery dates and give all the profitable side to private sector.
Stop it. The UK went down this road and service suffered, costs skyrocketed and the company they sold it to have made billions.
