As per the Memorandum of Agreement extending the Urban Collective Agreement until January 31, 2024, the CUPW and Canada Post held discussions with the goal of resolving the Two Bundle grievances. As the parties were not able to come to an agreement, we asked the Arbitrator to provide his decision to the parties.

The CUPW National Constitution sets the basic dues rate for Urban Operations workers at 300% of the maximum hourly rate for the lowest classification within the bargaining unit. RSMC dues have been set at 1.71% of the wage portion received by each member, to a monthly maximum equal to the dues for Urban Operation members.

Before the peak season lull, the Building Worker Power campaign was moving ahead full force as our eight Regional Organizers visited Locals throughout the country to promote workfloor empowerment, collect contacts and, most importantly, recruit workfloor captains to grow our capacity to fight back against CPC and the government.
Thursday January 12 2023
During a recent audit of the employer-provided database, CUPW found that 1754 routes with RMBs were not using the reaching device for delivery to RMBs.
Yet some of these routes have actually been using the reaching device for a long time. If the system indicates that the tool has not been implemented, it means that these routes are not receiving the proper compensation.
Is this your case?
Tuesday January 10 2023
Once again this year, cold weather is knocking at our door. This fall, it has been present and felt earlier in the Prairie and Pacific regions. Although late in most of eastern Canada, extreme cold spells will soon be a reality that we will have to deal with.

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.

Today, December 3, the National Executive Board met to update the Union’s response to Canada Post’s “comprehensive framework” provided on December 1, 2024.
Our response focuses on four key issues, which we need to see addressed if we are to achieve negotiated collective agreements.
Monday December 2 2024
Today, CUPW Negotiators carefully reviewed the Corporation’s December 1st “comprehensive framework” documents which contain Canada Post’s latest adjustments to their demands.
Sunday December 1 2024
On December 1, the Union received new “comprehensive framework” documents which provided the current position of Canada Post through the special mediator for both the Urban Operations and Rural and Suburban Mail Carriers bargaining units.
Friday November 29 2024
On November 29th, 2024, CUPW has filed an Unfair Labour Practice complaint with the CIRB against lay offs imposed by CPC on workers who are exercising their legal right to strike.
We feel this unprecedented move on the part of CPC is a clear intimidation tactic in violation of the Canada Labour Code. It is an attack on your fundamental right to strike that is enshrined in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
Friday November 29 2024
Your Negotiators are ready and waiting for Canada Post to return to the bargaining table, so we can get back to the important work of negotiating collective agreements for all postal workers.
As members know by now, the special mediator put Negotiations on a temporary pause, suggesting the Employer and the Union were too far apart for meetings to continue. We are hoping that Canada Post takes this time to reassess its positions and finally come to see the flaws in its bargaining proposals.
Friday November 29 2024
On Thursday, CUPW rallied at Canada Post Headquarters in Ottawa. They were joined by allies in the labour and social justice movements. Standing in solidarity, they sent a strong message to the Crown Corporation:
We’re ready to continue negotiations, but we can’t bargain with ourselves. Where is Canada Post?
Wednesday November 27 2024
For almost two weeks, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) has been on strike against Canada Post fighting for fair wages, safe working conditions, the right for all workers to retire with dignity, and the expansion of public postal services for all communities. But rather than make an effort to bargain good collective agreements that meet the needs of postal workers and the public, Canada Post has dug in its heels.
Wednesday November 27 2024
Canada Post’s latest information update of November 26 describing what is going on at the bargaining table is full of half-truths and outright deception.
First and foremost, CUPW left the meetings Tuesday since we cannot proceed without Canada Post’s negotiators. They had to go back to speak to the Executive Board of Canada Post for further direction.
Tuesday November 26 2024
Over the weekend, Canada Post informed the public and CUPW members, through the media, that CUPW Negotiators had spent Saturday at the bargaining table talking about cleaners working inside Canada Post facilities. This is an outright misrepresentation.
Monday November 25 2024
On November 22, Canada Post released its financial results for the 3rd quarter of 2024.
For the three months ending in September 2024, the Corporation reported a loss from operations of $313 million. Overall revenue was down $15 million compared to the same time last year, as growing revenue from Neighbourhood Mail and Transaction Mail were not enough to offset lower parcel volumes.
