Today, the RSMC Negotiating Committee met with Canada Post to respond to the Corporation’s September 25 global offer.

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.

We felt it necessary to respond to Mr. Ettinger’s misleading "Dear Colleague" letter released this week. Mr. Ettinger is either misinformed or doesn't fully grasp the situation; this crisis can be attributed to decisions made by his management group to undermine our rights and seize greater control.
