Sask. government preparing for possible Canada Post strike
The Government of Saskatchewan started getting its ducks in a row on Tuesday after the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) gave 72-hour strike notice to Canada Post.
The union said workers would be in a legal strike position as of Friday if a deal hadn’t been reached but, as of Tuesday afternoon, no decision had been made whether “job action” would happen at that time.
“After almost a year of bargaining, despite our best efforts, the parties remain far apart on many issues,” CUPW said in a statement to The Canadian Press.
CUPW represents many, but not all Canada Post workers.
