OTTAWA — The Liberal government in Ottawa is signalling it's not currently planning to intervene to end the Canada Post strike, even though the two sides appear to be far apart and the strike is hitting at the busiest time of year for the postal service.
"I would characterize these negotiations as extremely difficult," he said."There are many big issues to solve at the table and not a lot of progress has been made on those big issues." The two sides met briefly Friday with the mediator but won't get back to the table again until Monday, according to Jan Simpson, the national president for CUPW.
"One day they're saying yes, the next day they're saying no. So, we're just taking two steps forward, one step backward for a year now, and we're not getting anywhere."
