The Canada Post strike is now on its 12th day as the busy Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend approaches."The impacts continue to be felt across the country, hitting small businesses, charities and remote communities the most," stated Canada Post spokesperson Phil Rogers.
The Canadian Union of Postal Workers said this round of bargaining has "been an all-out attack on the rights and benefits" of postal workers. "Canada Post says it wants flexibility, but what it really wants is the flexibility to hire lower-wage, part-time workers, reduce worker benefits, and create a second-class workforce," reads the statement.
It added that its proposals would also create new regular permanent part-time jobs with schedules, giving temporary employees the opportunity to become permanent, with guaranteed hours and benefits.
