Support Postal Banking - Download and Sign the Petition

Canada needs a postal bank. Thousands of rural towns and villages in our country do not have a bank, but many of them have a post office that could provide financial services. 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.

CUPW is pleased to welcome Ebus drivers in Kamloops and Vancouver to our Union! Many of these new members are former Greyhound bus drivers who found work with Ebus after Greyhound left Western Canada in 2018.

The skyrocketing cost of living in BC has made it difficult for workers to make ends meet.
