Our Vision Must Prevail

Moya Greene is leaving!

For some, this news will bring a sigh of relief!

As we all know, CEOs come and go.  They pop in and do their tour around the circus ring, and then they fly away.

This is one more proof that we, the postal workers, are the real foundation holding the postal service together. This should never be forgotten! Who maintains the sustainability of the postal service? Who ensures mail delivery for every citizen in the country? Us! This is why our vision of a universal public post office must prevail.

 

Behind Moya Greene, there’s the establishment

Moya Greene is leaving! More than any other CEO before her, she personified the “business manager” who puts profits before everything else. A manager who didn’t understand the social responsibility of a public corporation like Canada Post. A manager who never accepted the fact that Canada Post’s workers are unionized and for the most part represented by CUPW.

But behind Moya Greene, there’s the establishment! She had the support of the Board of Directors and she surrounded herself with people who shared her vision. We must be realistic. She put in place an orientation and an apparatus that are still there. We won’t have to wait long to see how they behave without her.

 

The struggle continues

In the next few months, we will see who will take the helm of Canada Post. But does it really matter? Of course, we hope the new CEO will understand the importance of the public postal service and will respect the union. But as always, it is our vision, our solidarity and our resolve to maintain a universal public postal service that will make a difference.

Moya Greene is leaving, but the struggle continues.
