[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Sure if you live in the city or a bigger town. The vast majority of places Canada Post delivers to won't even be touched by other companies because it isn't profitable. Like even Amazon ships through Canada Post for everything rural. --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.

divot1338 posted... I like how people always wait until the worst possible moment when they can inflict the most casualties before striking.Dude, Canada Post workers literally have been going in while on strike to deliver essential mail like child tax, cpp and other government checks to make sure that the people that rely on those things for income aren't fucked. Canada Post employees do care but they do also have to make sure to be able to put the squeeze on the corporation as well otherwise the strike in ineffective. --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Purolator is standing with Canada Post employees and won't touch anything that is supposed to be Canada Post so hopefully they actually hit up Purolator for the shipping instead of trying to change it after the fact. --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.

Trumble posted... In fairness, I would argue they should first strike at a less critical time, with a clear threat of we will do it again at a worse time if needed. Then if that doesnt work, follow through on said threat.Problem is that that doesn't do anything. Canada Post will literally let the mail build up all year until Christmas when it actually matters. Striking now is the only time that the strike is effective. --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.

Trumble posted... The threat of following up with another strike at the more critical time would still be there. Its a way to say yes, were serious, but were giving you a chance to get your act together now, before the critical time comes. They've been negotiating for over a year at this point. They did not just jump straight to striking. ... Copied to Clipboard!

its a shitty situation i hope does get resolved soon, I see a lot of people complaining that Canada post workers get payed to much already when in reality its still only just.. okish pay, Just better in comparison to other package/mail delivery companies Also i see a lot of people saying Canada post should just be shut down and replaced with fully private entities not caring that in quite a few parts of Canada... Canada post IS the only option because private companies dont want to deal with the costs involved in delivering packages there ... Copied to Clipboard!

gamerofNS posted... Since I haven't seen it posted here yet, I guess that none of you have heard that Canada Post is now "temporarily" laying off striking workers? Trumble posted... The threat of following up with another strike at the more critical time would still be there. Its a way to say yes, were serious, but were giving you a chance to get your act together now, before the critical time comes.Canada Post workers have been working for almost a year without a contract because they are actually trying to be the reasonable ones. The corporation is just being asinine. The three biggest things that Canada Post workers are asking for is raises that match inflation, keeping the routing structure as it is(currently workers sort their own routes and deliver what they have, Canada Post wants to change it so that your route is basically different every day and you don't sort it and are given a route that is basically 33% bigger), and they are fighting to keep the pension as is(Canada Post wants to change it to an RRSP matching thing) --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.

It is a shame that one of the only weapons for workers involves so much collateral damage, but it usually that or keep bending over forever.Exactly, Canada Post is the reason things like 40 hr work week, OT pay, maternity leave and other things even exist in Canada. People just don't understand the power of unions and how important it is for all workers to stand together. You can literally see right now in real time how corporate greed is fucking everyone over but people want to choose to blame immigration or trans people instead. --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.

Canada Post delivers to all those places that aren't profitable for them to do so. Which is why it's not a surprise Canada Post has been losing money since they have to offer affordable mail delivery to remote places other companies won't touch while having to compete with said companies in the more lucrative cities. --- River Song: Well, I was off to this gay gypsy bar mitzvah for the disabled when I thought 'Gosh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish, I think i'll kill the Fuhrer' ...

I bet that the workers are keen to strike right through Christmas, but damn man.Board members were hoping the government intervention happens by now but they aren't doing that. Other services are starting to highlight how important they are and other industries refuse to help due to being maxed out since pandamic. Board thought they had more than they had. Negotiations will start again but they were trying to get private hands on weekends but the union workers said they could work those days. Hence the stalemate. With the recent uniting against ceos. That's having a chilling effect on all of them. I'll have to check to see if any progress. --- Above all things, never be afraid.

Hence the stalemate.The CEO has been told that the next deal he brings to the table has to be ratifiable or he is done. I guess there is a lot of shady shady shit going on with Canada Post that the federal government doesn't want getting out which is why every party in Canada has stood behind the union. The CEO of Canada Post also apparently owns significant stock in Purolator and he has been trying to steer Canada Post work towards Purolator for awhile now, which is a massive conflict of interest. Regardless, my wife has told me that her union reps believe it to be very close to ending and they will basically be getting everything they want. --- All posters and events depicted in this post are entirely fictitious.
