Negotiations updates

Canada Post continues to wait for a formal response to the proposals shared with CUPW through the mediator on Friday afternoon. Our proposals include significant moves to close the gap on key issues like weekend delivery, pensions and wages to reach new agreements and get our people back to work.

While we wait for a formal response at the table, CUPW has been actively and publicly sharing their views and details on our proposals since Friday night. We continue to operate within a confidential process, which was agreed to by Canada Post and CUPW. While we strongly disagree with the responses the union has shared publicly, we encourage CUPW to share their positions through the formal process.

Our focus should be on moving forward and focusing on the key issues, rather than causing added concern for those most impacted by the national strike. With the strike now into its fourth week, CUPW remains persistent in their demands to represent people outside their bargaining unit, such as making our cleaning staff, and other contracted support services, permanent Canada Post employees.

Canada Post has continued to put forward fair offers that are focused on our customers and our employees – improving service to grow our parcel business, while protecting and enhancing what our employees have today.
