SPECIAL STATEMENT REGARDING THE COVID 19 PANDEMIC
During the 3rd verification of our 2019-2023 mandate, the National Board of Trustees were once again required to do a virtual verification. While attempts were made by the National Union to provide the Board with all of the necessary documentation needed to complete a thorough verification, there were shortcomings.

SPECIAL STATEMENT REGARDING THE COVID 19 PANDEMIC
As we are all acutely aware, the COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on the way society operates. Our Union is not exempt from this. As a result, the 2nd verification of the National Board of Trustees was very different than any before it.

Updating labour policy to ensure that gig workers are given full and equal rights under the law is a pillar that best ensures the vibrancy of the Ontario economy. Our Union has fought for the rights of gig economy and other precarious workers; we are well-placed to state the case for changes to policy and practices that will provide these workers with fair pay and protections. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, now is the moment to opt for justice for frontline workers who are billed “heroes” but who lack the basic protections of regularized employment status, benefits and fair labour practices.

As well, nearly two million Canadians desperately need an alternative to payday lenders. A postal bank could be that alternative. Download and sign the petition urging the Government of Canada to instruct Canada Post to add postal banking, with a mandate for financial inclusion.

Today, May 21, our negotiation committees received global offers from Canada Post for both the Urban Postal Operation (UPO) and the Rural and Suburban Mail Carriers (RSMCs) bargaining units.

This year, CUPW is proud to celebrate the Pride season under the theme "Workers United Against Hate" proposed by the Canadian Labour Congress. As we face a shocking rise in anti-LGBTQ hate in Canada and around the world, this theme is more important than ever.

On Monday, May 19, CUPW issued a 72-hour strike notice to Canada Post. This action was not taken lightly, but it was done for several reasons.
The collective agreements for the Urban Postal Operations and the Rural and Suburban Mail Carriers bargaining units, which were extended by the Government in December 2024, are set to expire Friday, May 23 at midnight.

Commissioner Kaplan’s report of the Industrial Inquiry Commission skews heavily in favour of Canada Post’s positions and recommendations. We fundamentally disagree with the bulk of its recommendations and challenge some of the information on which it was based. We have also objected to the entire process, but we felt that we had to participate in order to give voice to postal workers. The report also outlines three possible steps forward after May 22. It is important to note that this is not a done deal. It is up to Minister Patty Hajdu to decide what to do with the report – if anything at all.
