Sisters and Brothers,
Along with your shop stewards the local is able to secure a CUPW information room at Gateway to help our members with the upcoming Gateway Plant wide bid.
Toronto Local has formed a Gateway Plant wide bid committee and it will be led by Gateway Chief Shop Steward Brother Suran Krishnakumar and Brother Jordan Forde.
Dear Sisters and Brothers:
The Toronto Local, along with other Labour Unions will be marching in the Toronto Labour Day Parade. The Local assembly will be in section 5, which is on the east (Curb) side of University Avenue, north from Queen St. to Armoury St. This year the Local is also recognizing 150 years together in solidarity with Toronto York Region Labour Council.

Sisters and Brothers,
Toronto Local met with Gateway management on August 3, 2022. Unfortunately, Canada Post disagreed with the Local's position on the temporary workers' list and violations of seniority.
For violations of seniority for temporary workers, the CPC decided to answer grievances and if necessary pay bypasses.
Sisters and Brothers,
Toronto Local will meet with Gateway management on August 3, 2022, for its first
temporary worker consultation since 2019.
On March 24, 2021, the House of Commons voted unanimously to officially designate August 1 Emancipation Day. It marks the actual day in 1834 that the Slavery Abolition Act of 1833 came into effect across the British Empire
Due to the Gateway Postal Facility being declared a Covid-19 red zone as well as the upcoming consultation for temporary workers. The August 2, 2022 Meet the Local President zoom/webinar will be exclusively for temporary workers.
