The public post office distributes government cheques that are a vital part of the social safety net. We do not want pensioners and people who rely on government assistance to suffer if the Union is locked out or forced to strike. The most vulnerable members of our society should not be caught in the crosshairs of our contract dispute with Canada Post. In addition, we want to make sure that live animals are not trapped in the mail system during a work disruption.

Labour Day is more than just a day off work; it’s a testament to the power of collective action. It’s a reminder of the countless workers who, through sweat, determination, and sometimes great personal sacrifice, have fought for the rights we often take for granted today. The eight-hour workday, weekends, health and safety standards, and the right to organize— all of these hard-won gains were achieved through the tireless efforts of workers united in a common cause.
