    SOLD AT CONVENTION - The Canadian Union of Postal Workers has a long history of activism, courage, determination, and solidarity. Together, workers have fought and won labour rights not only for postal workers, but all workers across the country. Pushing the Envelope gives readers a detailed history of our Union told by the workers. This is the story of our struggles, our fight, and our victories told by the workers. It’s a piece of CUPW history so we never forget where we came from and what we can achieve together.

    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.
