WE MUST REMAIN VIGILANT DURING THE SECOND WAVE
I would have liked to write to you today to let you know that this pandemic is finally behind us.
Unfortunately, and despite what some people may think, we are now in that dreaded second wave that has been anticipated since last summer. As our National President Jan Simpson recently stated in her September 23rd bulletin, we must remain vigilant and ensure our safety.

As we prepare for a meaningful and Just Recovery for people and for the planet, we must seize the moment to impart CUPW’s ideas for expanding services, and reducing Canada Post’s carbon footprint. The content of the recent speech from the Throne is significant and CUPW will take full advantage of this moment to make our vision take hold broadly.

Download and sign the petition urging the Government of Canada to instruct Canada Post to add postal banking, with a mandate for financial inclusion.

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.
