AN EMERGENCY RALLY CALL FOR A FAIR CONTRACT AND TO PROTECT WORKERS’ RIGHTS

**When:** Monday, December 16th at 10 am  
**Where:** 622 College St W. Toronto, Outside the offices of Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland  

 

Attention to all Letter Carriers, Postal Clerks, RSMC’s, Maintenance Mechanics, and every CUPW member! It’s time to come together, regardless of whether you work at a letter carrier depot, plant, or postal outlet. Whether you’ve been involved in picketing or not, your voice matters—we need everyone to stand up for our rights to negotiate a fair contract at the bargaining table while withholding our work.
 
With your participation we will make history in our fight for fairness at a significant moment. 
 
Federal Labour Minister Steve MacKinnon has invoked Section 107 of the Canadian Labour Code—a violation of workers’ rights and a move that threatens Canadian democracy. This action may direct the CIRB to send us back to work across the country. But don’t worry our Union is looking at our options.
CUPW Toronto Local and the Toronto & York Region Labour Council are coordinating this rally. The Scarborough Local has been invited to join us. 
For over a month, we have been striving to reach a fair contract and settle our disputes, but Canada Post Corporation continues to refuse to bargain fairly and in good faith. The Liberal government’s willingness to intervene on behalf of Canada Post has violated our rights and we cannot stand by silently.
This follows a trend of Liberal government intervention on the side of the employer, attacking workers’ rights and ensuring the employers won’t bargain in good faith.
Now, in the face of imminent unconstitutional back-to-work mandates, CUPW members and working people are standing up to a government which has sold us out.
Together in the thousands we can make our voices heard and advocate for the rights of all workers in Canada. Join us in this historic protest, as we stand against the escalating government intervention that undermines our collective rights.
Your participation at this rally at 10am, December 16th, 2024 will count toward your picket duty for that day but do keep in mind that transportation costs, mileage and parking costs will not be covered. The rally is planned for no more than 2 hours.
Let’s come together and make our stand for fair treatment and justice!
In Solidarity
Mark Lubinski  
President 
Toronto Local CUPW

TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION

September 30TH , 2026

10 A.M.

47 DENSLEY AVE

UNION HALL

Sisters, Brothers, Comrades:

 

Please join the Local in celebrating truth and reconciliation for our Indigenous workers with a blessing and refreshments at the Local Union Hall on this important day.

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is observed annually on September 30 to honour Survivors of residential schools, their families, and Indigenous communities. This day provides an opportunity to recognize the painful legacy of residential schools, reflect on the ongoing impacts of colonialism, and support meaningful reconciliation.  It matters because

We honour the children who never returned home from residential schools.

We Recognize the experiences and resilience of Survivors.

It encourages learning about Indigenous histories, cultures, and contributions.

It also promotes action toward reconciliation and respectful relationships

Ways for our members to participate

  • Wear orange to recognize Orange Shirt Day and support awareness of residential school experiences.
  • Attend local Indigenous-led events, ceremonies, or educational programs.
  • The Toronto Local CUPW holds a celebration every year at the Union Hall at 47 Densley Ave, North York
  • Come join in and hear the speakers and help celebrate this important day.
