Canada Post says the threat of a strike is “rapidly impacting” its revenue as customers who worry about their holiday packages not arriving in time switch delivery services.Mail boxes at Canada Post's main plant in Calgary, Alta. on Saturday, May 9, 2020. Canada Post says the threat of a strike is "rapidly impacting" its revenue as customers who worry about their holiday packages not arriving in time switch delivery services.
The volumes of mail and parcels are "down significantly and continue to erode," the statement said, warning that the strike threat will only further undermine the company's deteriorating financial situation. Negotiations continued through the weekend, with both sides escalating their language on Monday. The union must give Canada Post 72 hours notice before a strike can happen.
The union says it wants to make sure the changes Canada Post is pursuing don't compromise regular full-time weekday routes.
