You Can Expect to See some Mail in Your Mailboxes Again, but Not on a Regular Schedule

Postal workers resumed duties amid ongoing talks, with Canada Post offering 13.59% wage increases over four years, while the union warns of potential job losses.

  • The Canadian Union of Postal Workers will resume work Tuesday despite no ratifiable collective agreement being on the table after a productive Oct. 8 meeting with Joël Lightbound.
  • Rotating strikes on Saturday targeted small rural communities including Timmins, Fort St. John and St. Anthony after a national shutdown on Sept. 25 prompted Canada Post to restart operations.
  • Canada Post offered a multi-year wage increase and workforce measures, including six months' notice and voluntary departure incentives of up to 78 weeks' base pay, the union says.
  • Canada Post will not accept new commercial volumes until later this week, and customers should expect delays in clearing trapped mail while delivery guarantees remain suspended.
  • Negotiations continue with Joël Lightbound, expected to follow up, as the union urges review of Purolator use and points to over $1.1B in postage revenue from this year's increase.
