After more than two years of negotiations, both Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) have reached agreements in principle covering the union’s urban and rural bargaining units.
Canada Post says it will begin restarting mail operations this weekend as the Canadian Union of Postal Workers shifts from a national walkout to rotating strikes.
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers launched a nationwide strike in opposition to sweeping federal postal reforms, denouncing what it called an “attack” on public mail service.
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers launched an immediate nationwide strike Thursday after the federal government ordered Canada Post to begin a sweeping overhaul that could spell the end of traditional door-to-door delivery.
