Atlantic postal workers in action
Your Public Post Office Delivers Campaign / Blog
The Truro local in Nova Scotia held a day of action in protest of the Québec City closure. The local stood in solidarity to say NO to Canada Post and President Moya Greene.
Local President Toni MacAfee wrote: "We had great participation from our members. We gathered in the lunchroom for a talk, dressed in our black t-shirts. Members signed a card to send to the Québec City local. As well, we had a draw for two t-shirts, a Québec City t-shirt and a Rosie the Riveter t-shirt. Sister Cheek Totten made a great poster which hit home for a lot of our members; it highlighted the reality that all of our jobs are at risk!"
"As we left the lunchroom, we were equipped with whistles and noisemakers. When one member started to make some noise on the floor, we all followed.
Our intention was to make some noise over the issue and that we certainly did!!"
