POSTAL WORKERS UNDER ATTACK

 

Sisters and Brothers,

 

Postal Workers are being attacked by the federal government again. During the pandemic we only received praise while delivering mail including medication, food and supplies to the public on a daily basis.

Minister in charge of Canada Post Filomena Tassi, sends a survey to the interest group with the following questions:

  • Closing rural post offices?
  • Replacing postal workers with machines?
  • Closing all home deliveries and installing community mail box?
  • Cutting mail delivery 3 times a week?

 

Toronto Local is very concerned about the minister’s survey. Shame on her and the liberal government.

Toronto Local is asking members to email your local MP’s and tell them to STOP all the attacks on postal workers and we will remember them in the next election. Workers cannot be replaced by machines.

Email address for Ms Tassi at [email protected] and copy the minority prime minister at [email protected]

Postal workers under attack, what do we do? Stand up! Fight back!

Toronto Local will be meeting with every MP in our local jurisdiction to remind them about the services we provide to the public which the federal government called essential. They will be also reminded that they are a minority government and these types of attacks could change history.

The struggle continues.

 

In Solidarity,

President’s Report for March

On March 1st to the 2nd our National negotiators discussed our ongoing bargaining dispute with Canada Post and worked towards new collective agreements. During these negotiations, we proposed enhancements to weekend parcel deliveries while advocating for protecting full-time jobs. However, Canada Post has maintained a position that includes rollbacks, which would undermine our collective agreement and threaten the stability of full-time employment.
