Canada Post rejects union's offer to delay potential strike
- Canada Post rejected the Canadian Union of Postal Workers' proposal to delay a potential strike set for May 23, 2025, in Ottawa and across Canada.
- This situation arose after Canada Post paused negotiations last week and issued a new offer following a 72-hour strike notice from CUPW on May 19, 2025.
- Canada Post's latest offer includes a 13.59% wage increase over four years, six additional personal days, benefits for part-time workers, and measures to improve operational flexibility.
- An independent report by Commissioner William Kaplan labeled Canada Post insolvent and recommended phasing out daily door-to-door delivery, while CUPW’s president Jan Simpson stated the union will thoroughly review if offers meet their members' priorities.
- The stalled talks imply a possible strike that could disrupt mail services nationwide, affecting millions and highlighting Canada Post's ongoing financial challenges despite government intervention.
