The Canadian Union of Postal Workers is in bargaining talks with our employer, Canada Post. We want you to
have better and expanded services instead of cuts.
We need your support.
Help us protect the future of your public postal service
Around the world, national post offices are finding ways to make the most of their infrastructure by
offering people new and better services.
Instead, Canada Post is choosing to cut labour costs—even though it is already making profits—which could
hurt your services.
In our talks with Canada Post, postal workers are asking for more services to the public in order to keep
Canada Post in good shape financially, while maintaining good jobs in our communities.
We need your support to tell Canada Post that service expansion is the right way to go. For now and for
the future.

Canada Post Corporation stands at a threshold. On one hand it faces significant challenges due to economic recession, electronic diversion, and years of underinvestment in facilities and equipment. On the other it has the advantages of an enormous physical infrastructure and trained staff which could enable it to greatly extend the communications, financial and transport services it provides to the population.
Will Canada Post become a delivery agent of last resort? Or will it follow the example of other postal administrations and provide new and needed services?
