Canada Post union says negotiation meeting delayed, with talks to continue Monday
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers demands a 19% wage increase over four years and cost-of-living adjustments, while Canada Post seeks more time to review offers, delaying talks until Aug. 25.
- A meeting initially planned for Friday between the postal service and its workers' union was rescheduled to Monday, August 25, 2025, causing a delay in ongoing negotiations.
- The delay follows negotiations that resumed Wednesday, August 20, when the union presented comprehensive offers and Canada Post requested more time to review.
- Canada Post proposed approximately a 13% pay raise spread over a four-year period along with adjustments to include part-time employees in the agreement, whereas the union is seeking a 19% wage increase, cost-of-living protections, and restrictions on mandatory overtime.

- The postponement to August 25 indicates ongoing review and negotiation phases between the union and Canada Post, with talks expected to continue at that time.
