Today, May 30, CUPW met with Patty Hajdu, Minister of Jobs and Families, and John Zerucelli, Secretary of State for Labour. It was our second meeting with them since they were appointed to their positions after the federal election.
At the meeting, we shared our thoughts and concerns about negotiations and the recent global offers from Canada Post. We were assured that the Minister would continue to play an intermediary role in the bargaining process but will not intervene at this time.

Media Advisory -
OTTAWA - Canada Post’s plan will result in sweeping changes to our public postal system’s regulatory framework. The Corporation’s most recent contract offers to CUPW don’t drop its proposed rollbacks. When combined, this is sure to result in service and job cuts.
Wednesday May 28 2025
On May 28, Canada Post released its annual report for 2024. The Corporation posted a loss before tax of $841 million, continuing a pattern of financial losses since 2018. Canada Post puts the blame for the scale of its losses to several factors
Wednesday May 28 2025
Today, May 28, Canada Post presented what it calls its “best and final” offers for both the RSMC and Urban bargaining units.
While Canada Post insists that its offers reflect the Union’s demands from our May 25 proposal, there are almost no changes from what the Employer put forward on May 21. There's no question: Canada Post is not negotiating. Canada Post is playing hardball.
Friday May 2 2025

As bargaining continues, and Canada Post steps up its attack on our rights, CUPW negotiators are doing everything in their power to stand up and fight back!
Canada Post needs to know that we will not accept rollbacks and our negotiators need to know that they have the full support of the membership. To show our support, we invite members to purchase a t-shirt.
Tuesday May 7 2024
OTTAWA – Postal workers have solutions – but will Canada Post and the Government listen? “Public Postal services do have a future in this country and in the world. We have to grow toward it,” says Jan Simpson, National President of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers.
Tuesday May 7 2024

Since it was founded in 1981, it has had more profitable years than losses and paid millions in taxes and dividends.

Over a month ago, postal workers soundly rejected Canada Post’s offers in a government-forced vote. The Corporation’s plan to bypass the Union and impose rollbacks on us failed.
With the Corporation’s offers rejected by the membership, the only way to settle this dispute is at the bargaining table and the Employer changing its positions.
