May 30th Day of Action

We stand in Solidarity,

 We demand improvements!

 

Sisters, Brothers, Cousins:

Our activists/members are the strength we have on the work floor, when you organize to take back the power it is noticed by the boss.  We own the work floor not management!  Over the past few months with Building Worker Power it was quite noticeable.

 

You have the capacity to fight going forward for our future we have to organize on May 30th for the day of action.  We are asking members to be creative and have pot lucks, coffee breaks, T-Shirt days and take lots of pictures and have them sent to us at [email protected] to show the entire country how strong we are.

THEY SAY CUT BACK WE SAY FiGHT BACK! The history of this Union and our Negotiations has always been that the Corporation has no money for workers, it is the same old story don’t fall into their games. Stay strong!

The next few months are going to be very important for workers, we deserve better than the Corporation is willing to offer, and we have to fight to get what we deserve.  A better collective agreement for all.

Every month we will be having a different action, we are asking the membership to participate in all, we need to stand together all the way to victory.

May 30th let’s stand together in Solidarity, we demand improvements, we are ready to take on this struggle.

The struggle continues…….

 

In Solidarity

Dear Sisters, Brothers, and Friends,

Canada Post on December 12th, 2025 has again started to issue 44.11(a) termination letters to temporary workers. If you receive one, it is critical that you act immediately.

WHAT TO DO RIGHT AWAY:

  1. File a grievance without delay.
  2. Contact your Shop Steward at onceor call the Toronto Local Grievance Officer to arrange an in-person meeting at the Union Hall.
  3. Gather any documentationthat explains the reasons for your unavailability.
  4. Do not resign and do not accept termination.

Temporary workers are not disposable. You are essential, you are union, and you deserve fair treatment. Your rights are protected under the collective agreement—use them.

The Toronto Local is defending your rights.

CUPW is filing grievances, challenging violations, and pushing back against unfair treatment.

Solidarity means every worker counts.

We will not allow Canada Post to divide us.  We will not remain silent while temporary workers are used, mistreated, or pushed aside.

An injury to one is an injury to all—and the Toronto Local will fight for every single member.

In Solidarity and In Strength

 

Mark Lubinski 

President 

Toronto Local CUPW

Sisters, Brothers and Siblings:

With Christmas right around the corner, I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of you and your families a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays and a very Happy, Healthy and Peaceful New Year.

The resilience and strength in the face of challenges we have faced truly inspired all Postal Workers and our National Negotiators.  

As we spend this Christmas and New Year holiday with loved ones, take a moment to reflect on gratitude and unity.

Mark Lubinski,

President,

CUPW Toronto Local
