The Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) is pleased to announce that Canada Post is launching the long-awaited “NEW” financial service offering as a market test to the public in September 2021. The Appendix “T” Committee has lots of news to share.
Friday July 23 2021
In recent weeks, several questions have been asked about the process that led to the renewal of agreements and the tentative MOAs between CUPW and CPC for the Urban and RSMC units.
Friday July 16 2021

As we transition to a post-pandemic world, the importance of income and job security has never been greater. The pandemic resulted in tremendous changes to the courier and postal delivery industry. Parcels increased dramatically while letter mail, advertising mail, and householders declined. Not all the new parcel business went to traditional delivery companies like Canada Post, Purolator, UPS, FedEx, etc. New delivery networks, using companies like Uber expanded, while Amazon started delivering its own parcels in some areas. No one knows what the post pandemic world will look like. Will parcel deliveries decline as shoppers return to the stores? Will advertising mail return? We do not know. But we can say that with the new tentative agreements, our job and income security will not only continue, it will improve.
Friday July 9 2021
Thanks to the mobilization of CUPW, the labour movement, our allies and the support of hundreds of municipalities, CPC is finally planning to expand into financial services.
Tuesday July 6 2021
The tentative collective agreements provide many important elements for all RSMCs and Urban operations workers. No one can predict what the economic situation will be in 2022. Will CPC once again be profitable? Will it continue to lose millions of dollars? No one knows. But with the tentative agreements, members have guaranteed wage increases, improved job security, diversified public postal services, and stability and progress during uncertain times.
Tuesday July 6 2021

Thirty-five years ago, a gunman walked into an engineering class at Montreal’s École Polytechnique, separated the women from the men, and proceeded to murder 14 young women. This act of violent misogyny shook the country and led the Government of Canada to designate December 6 as the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women.
