      Im sure they are. But lets not pretend that workers and the middle class are probably manipulated by the less ethical among the ultrawealthy to fight for scraps while they buy yachts off the wealth workers generate.
      Just my thoughts.

    Executives won’t negotiate. Their salaries and bonuses are guaranteed. They own Purolator and a couple other courier services. So they make more money during strike as other couriers get busier.
    Not sure why this isn’t a conflict of interest and why bonuses are guaranteed.
    Also they have cut pay by more than 15% from 5 years ago then offer 11% of 5 years and they won’t guarantee another pay cut.

    We are shooting ourselves in the foot not building cheap, easily accessible EVs in Canada right now. The Carbon Tax was a blunder because it targeted the Canadian voting public, while ignoring that 80% of Canadian pollution comes from heavy industry. If there is to be a tax it should be on producers alone, and there must be something in place to ensure that they are NOT passing the cost on to the consumer.

      Why shouldn’t it be passed on to the consumer? Who is demanding this majorly polluting service? Why should the business be penalized for something the public chooses to consume? If you feel it’s bad for the environment, I guess you should find options that you feel are not and the cost of those producers won’t be passed to you.

    • @Merakis100
      @Merakis100 7 годин тому

      @carleem4559 It should not be passed to the consumer because the consumer is not responsible for cleaning up the producer's mess. Nobody is demanding this majorly polluting threat - everyone is demanding that we have a sustainable future. Businesses should be penalized for the negative impact of their products, to the point of being shut down entirely if they fail to show any responsibility. We have other options that do not create nearly as much waste and are far more sustainable while also costing less than hydrocarbons to create the same amount of energy, sustainably. Anyone telling you otherwise is an addict and wouldn't change their opinion because they are sick.

WAGES NEEDED TO BE RAISED ALL ACROSS THE BOARD NOT JUST FOR THE POLITICAL LEADERS. THAT'S WHERE THE WAGES NEED TO BE CUT.

    I don't know how postal workers could ask for more money when the organization is losing money every year for the last 15+ years. Like any business, it has to restructure to become profitable again. You can't keep running to the government and taxpayers have to fund your salaries and pension plan which we all know public servants are well paid and very good retirement.

    Canada Post is a dinosaur, and the postal workers are always whining about how they don't have something or other -- what else is new? I remember back in the 70s when they went on strike every second year at Christmas. I was talking to one of the postal workers who told me: "It's the only time of year we can go on strike." In other words, it's the only time of year when they can be a thorn in the side of the public, which is who the postal workers are always playing, hoping they can make them mad enough and thus draw them into the issue. Folks and small businesses need to be able to read between the lines, and see the real colors of the postal workers.

    Governments chicken out before the unions. However, if they take action to disolving unions that harm the productivity, hurt the economy, or give the nation a bad reputation, then the people win. It has shown in S. Korea, not giving into red unions always powergrabbing, and striking for the purpose of just to pocket some easy cash.

    • @kal8344
      @kal8344 10 годин тому

      They are not dissolving unions. Even public employees are unionized. Canada Post is just not economically feasible the way it is. They could deliver using drones, autonomous cars, and numerous over innovations, which would make their business profitable.

    • @abcdedfg8340
      @abcdedfg8340 4 години тому

      Actually korea has a huge wealth gap issue. Its so bad now that the birthrate has fallen below replacement levels from long work hours, not great productivity from burnout, and suppressed wages for many in the middle class.
      Unions within reason can help alot. France and Germany have better living standards and stronger middle classes. Also far better work life balance of 5 or 6 weeks off, and productivity that rivals the us while still being family friendly.
      Read on it. Just my opinion.
