Canada Post belongs to you

 

Canada Post is investing $2.5 billion in new equipment and methods. In this time of economic restraint, we have to make sure the investment is a good deal for you.

You deserve to share in the benefits of modernization and efficiency. The savings must be reinvested and shared with the public and the postal workers.

After all is said and done, it’s still the workers who make your postal service strong.

 

We want your local post office to do more for you!

We are the Canadian Union of Postal Workers and we know you expect a postal service that works for you.

Canada Post has made profits for the past 15 years. It’s been paying taxes and dividends back to the public purse all the while. That means your postal service and its workers have not been drawing on public funds in that time.

While Canada Post management plans service cuts and closures, we prefer to do more work for our communities. We will use our upcoming round of bargaining to try to bring you new and improved postal services, while remaining profitable, including:

• longer hours of business

• banking, insurance, financial services

• government services like licenses, permits, library service — these would vary according to your community

• more door-to-door delivery

• expanded parcel service

• a reduced carbon footprint

• same-day delivery

• evening & weekend premium delivery services
