The Canada Post Group of companies 2022 annual report released during CUPW’s National Convention sends clear signals about how Canada Post Corporation sees its future – and what the battlegrounds will be for our members.
The Corporation is likely to focus on belt-tightening as it hopes for a post-pandemic recovery. Uncertainty around global issues and a recession hang in the air - but it can’t be the workers who pay the price.
Monday December 19 2022

Fuel cost along with all other incurred expenses for RSMCs have been rising consistently all year. The cost of fuel alone has risen by 40 percent since December 2021.
RSMCs receive money from Canada Post to pay for the use of their vehicles at a rate set by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). That amount is updated yearly and was last updated at the start of 2022 based on prices from November 2021. With this sudden increase in inflation, including the cost of gas, the math no longer makes sense.
Friday August 5 2022
For those I haven’t yet had the pleasure of meeting, my name is Roland Schmidt and I was elected as your new 3rd National Vice-President (Organizing) this past May. Before my election, I was serving my 2nd term as the Local President of CUPW 730 (Edmonton and affiliates) in Alberta. Since relocating to Ottawa in June, I’ve dedicated my efforts to stabilizing our organizing department and constructing a comprehensive strategic plan that, with broad member support, will revitalize our union and position us to effectively fight to make our jobs better.
