Support CUPW in their year-long bargaining struggle with Canada Post
For nearly a year, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) has been in negotiations with Canada Post. They are fighting to maintain good jobs and benefits, to provide decent and safe working conditions for their members. They are also pushing to expand services to help sustain public post offices, and to meet the modern needs of people and their communities.
Canada Post has shown a preference for arbitration rather than direct negotiation on several key issues, echoing familiar patterns from past bargaining rounds. CUPW’s goal is to settle these matters through bargaining, not imposed decisions.
GSU members are encouraged to stay informed and stand in solidarity with CUPW in their fight for a fair collective agreement.
