Through suspensions and terminations they have the grievance process tied -up for months or longer. What can be done? Canada Post must pay for their labour violations!!

That's democracy. Personally I prefer a system based on incentive. Personally I'm not disappointed with my former union, I'm disappointed with Moya's Madness. How is not picking up the mail on weekends going to increase business revenue? When you are in a service based industry, you reduce your profits when you reduce your services. What a brain surgeon.

Now is not the time for internal "bickering". Now is the time for ALL bargaining units within Canada Post to work together to secure our future in the industry and to make continued improvements for our customers. Our competitor's are clearly fighting for our work and that is something we can't grieve: we can only morph from times long ago when lettermail paid our wages to a highly effective logistics provider with reasonable rates. So go ahead and walk out or slow down your work. CPC will have to financially cover this loss, mark up prices, lose customers, cut costs (including jobs). One final thought, privatization does not pay bills, benefits or pensions. Do we not all work for the same employer? Now is not the time for internal “bickering”.

A strong union would never have even brought this crap back for consideration most people look at the contract for wage increases and don't even read the language changes. and don't even get me started on this unadressed admail!!!!

They got bent over the mailbox so badly in last negotiations that they will publish any small gains this time as a success for members. Glad they got that handwash time straightened out!
