Rallies in support of Canada Post workers scheduled across the country
- Supporters of Canada Post workers are holding rallies today in multiple locations nationwide, with events planned in cities such as Halifax, Toronto, and Vancouver.
- Labour disputes continue after several months of conciliation and mediation between Canada Post and the union that represents about 55,000 employees.
- On Wednesday, Canada Post submitted its final proposal to the union, including a 14 percent wage increase spread over four years, the elimination of mandatory overtime, and assigning weekend shifts to part-time employees—an issue that remains a key point of contention.
- The Crown corporation reported an operating deficit approaching $1.3 billion for the previous year, including a $208 million loss attributed to a 32-day strike last fall that severely disrupted mail services during the holiday period.
- The union remains in a legal strike position with an overtime ban and insists it will continue fighting to protect the public post office amid the impasse and Canada Post's push for job cuts.
