Why? Because you want him to? I’m no fan of any leader….but any delay in conservatives demand for an election is definitely worth watching all the crying and moaning…..children
not until he qualifies for his golden pension Feb 2025 then he will turn on the Liberals to try and get some points for the party but NDP and Liberals are all one party now and both will be held accountable on election day
Omg woman. How long were you going to hold Canadians mail hostage in the system both domestically and at international distribution centers comming from outside the country!? A month with no signs of ending.
What are the rights of all Canadians when you are talking about your rights? Hold all Canadians hostage is just unacceptable, especially during this time of year.
Aww Canadas most radical union has to go back to work. Ask any trucker who’s picked up loads at any one of your terminals if we feel sorry for you, no we don’t we’ve seen you sitting around doing squat even though our loads are sitting ready to be loaded
I don't care about what the union saids they could careless and can cry a river. Canadians are pissed with both sides and it's about time the government intervened. Canadians pay Canadians pay Canada Post Employees and don't deserve this treatment.
Don't worry, just ask NDP Jagmeet Singh to support you. Everyone should go to all the press conferences to ask NDP Jagmeet Singh to vote non-confidence because he said so.

We quit years ago. It has not been more expensive. We actually get out packages, pay bills online, same with all our family and friends. Too many years of the worst service, much worse than every other company, at both our home and business. Life has honestly been so much less stressful by quitting CP. It has been about 7 years. Highly recommend.
@gayanjayaratne5306 then don’t! Do you think you’ll make a dent? lol If you have the money to burn when you use ups or FedEx go for it. I’m sure you’ll opt to use canada post if you do the comparison. lol
That's some sort of greedy thinking worker's wages should at least keep up with inflation while overpaid executives are awarding themselves bonuses and claiming there's no money.
CUPW and Canada Post should both be ashamed of themselves. You both have had four weeks to hold Canadians hostage, enough is enough. Time to end this madness with no end in sight.
So . . . you're saying your job situation isn't fair, and you think the solution is to have all other worker's job situations unfair as well. Brilliant! I'm sure it will lead to real progress.
2 new facilities in the last 5 years and $7k quarterly bonuses to management at every level under "hazard pay" not to mention their yearly bonuses or the $100,000 increase Ettinger just recived for the next 5 years (who's salary currently grosses $400,000k) could explain alot of their "loss". The $5m in "wages" they talk about include management not just union workers. You have a right to know what you're paying for when you shop at Canada Post so do your own research and chose how you would like to ship your finances. I challenge you to send a Christmas card with a different company this year and see what that cost looks like.
@@darkenergy410 Yes, that's the truth. But in a private section, you won't ask your boss to increase your wage that much when he is keeping losing money. Moreover, there are bunch of international students who are waiting for your position...
You can do that , hire a lawyer sue canada post . The judge will laugh at you and so will millions of canadains . Striking is legal and what you are talking about would end striking because workers could never stop working .
Excellent!! Not about the back-to-work nonsense, but Jagmeet Singh is on record several times over the past week stating he will force a non-confidence vote if Trudeau intervenes in this strike. Let's go Singh!! Put up our shut up.
Bro you're so delusional, you rather play the blame game than actually talk about the actual problems. The reason why conservatives are losing are is because they don't value anything about Canadians. If they did they would be making videos about their values but they're not.
Oh, you're talking about management, right? Those few at the top who are being paid to keep their workers from making a competitive wage or from protecting their health?
No, I'm talking about the union AND the strikers. Enough is enough. They've disrupted mail, parcel and put small businesses out of business just before Christmas.
well they did have a right to strike. 4 weeks is long enough to make a deal. Im more happy that the workers being financially destroyed by the union can finally get back to work and maybe salvage there Christmas after all
Other workers have rights too! Postal workers jobs aren't the only ones that matter. The strike has caused approximately $25,000+(for every postal worker) worth of damage to our economy, collectively. How is that okay? There's a reason it's illegal in the USA to halt mail!!!
So you have held MY PROPERTY in transit without fair reason and deprived me of its use for 4 weeks now, where are my rights, I paid for a service, you failed to provide it, so are you going to compensate me? No, didn’t think so, get back to work and do your jobs.
We don't pay for canada post with our tax dollars. They're a crown corporation entirely funded by their service much like any other business. Maybe they should get better at doing business.
Notice how the govts immediately intervened in the rail and port strikes (private sector) but the money losing postal service ahhh who cares. Privatize parcel. Have the big couriers bid on the business
Canada post needs to make sure that the mail they deliver are being delivered to the right addresses. I don't know how many times I had to do their job and deliver mail to the correct address. So get back to work!!!!!!
Fire the who works and move on. What a waste of taxpayer money (and it is taxpayer money) employing this lot of uneducated, overpaid, over benefited so called workers. They only want to go back now that they found out what they are really worth.
You want the right to retire with dignity ? This enrages me. Your demands for dignity means I am forced to pay for your retirement. My self employed earnings allows for 1 retirement to be paid. I cannot pay your retirement and my own. The epitome of arrogance you government employees believe you deserve the retirement i worked and earned. This is another reason I do NOT support canada post nor any other government employee.
If the company is losing money, there should be no right to strike. Saw this in a union once - the rep was "I don't care if the company goes under, you're getting your money" - guess what? They did go under under a year after negotiations.
@jnieuwenhuis8504 🤣 They can't lose money- that's unsustainable. They also need to turn a profit to save for harder times too - besides that, if they don't need to turn a profit, why charge anything at all? If the gov takes that approach, its no wonder we're 40-60 Billion in debt...
Why are they striking specifically? I thought they were paid well. The public should be informed on the details don’t you think? What are their demands exactly? Thats the news we need to hear.
This! If the union got everything they're asking for, they'd still be paid less than comparable FedEx and UPS workers. There are sources online to find this information, but all the main outlets seem to be interested in is shooting down the workers while hiding the facts.
@ I’d have to dig, I consider myself fairly informed, more than most. If I don’t know I’m sure most don’t. I will look into it but my point still stands. Every news story about this should mention some details. I’ve seen a dozen or more with zero details.
Demands. Don't touch the pension Dont touch benefits Fair wages Don't change certain working conditions That's all employees care about. The rest is Union and corp having a pissing contest
You have demands for major increases while the organization is failing financially. If CP was a private company it would be bankrupt while the Canadian Taxpayers are on the hook for billions. The union should be part of the solution and suggest plans on how to become financially viable like mail delivery once a week, etc.
Privatize! Taxpayers have had more than enough. The business is not sustainable in its present form and the Union is so out of touch with their ridiculous demands!
This is the best news story all year! CP, a terrible organization, got screwed, selfish greedy union wasted their time and got screwed, and Jagmeet aka selout Singh is screwed worse than ever now
The Union should take what was offered. The Union must understand our government is BROKE. There's NO Money !! Now they have to wait till next May to talk again.
Should let them stay on strike until they start starving. They’re not going to pay the rent making $50 a day strike pay. A reasonable compromise would be for them to go back to work and clear the backlog since their strike at Christmas time didn’t work out.
This is exactly what CP Management wanted. Cry about mail and parcels and never seriously negotiate with the Union workers for over a YEAR. It seems that what some of the public call "useless workers" suddenly become useful during the holiday season delivering mail and parcels!!! Until it is determined if workers are essential year round not just Christmas season, this is going to happen again... The Struggle Continues!!!
Postal workers: - are not performing essential tasks like emergency medical services - have no educational requirements - are not specialized in any field/ are not highly skilled workers - are allowed to smoke and eat WHILE working (ie. The mail drivers in rural areas - I know this firsthand, I live there and my mail lady smokes while delivering my mail) - no other job allows you to do this, have this much comfort Get real about your importance and stature. Please go back to work.
ummm she is correct by that statement..Canada Post yes..is a Crown corp...but it is not taxpayer funded...this can easily be researched. Canada post employees are paid by the profits canada post makes thru it sales of products and services...no tax payer money at all.
You don't see other companies going on strike and crying about the same stuff every other company deals with... Get over it and get back to work. They want better wages yet they make more then the average person every week.
Never ever in history since the last Trudeau has there been this many strikes. Never has any politician undermined collective bargaining more than this Government, Supported by the NDP at every step.

You workers voted to strike! Now you’re demanding compensation? ROFL
No, we’re not! We want to go back to work!
You have been out a month now and are so far apart you will never settle the agreement and punishing everyone for this impass !
overpaid, easily replaced workers in an irrelevant business
What about our paying them for our packages and now they are sitting idle in their system.
CP refund my money or deliver my package.
CP workers took away Canadian's right to essential postal service!
liberals and conservatives are the same. ndp too. workers and reg ppl are always the punchline in this interminable joke.
Wish they could all just be fired. There a tons of Canadians who would LOVE to make $20+ an hour to drip letters in a box. 24% MY ASS
Can you hear yourself Miss Jan Simpson????
It's a dying and unprofitable business.
It's supposed to be a public service.
You don't see other companies going on strike and crying about the same stuff every other company deals with... Get over it and get back to work. They want better wages yet they make more then the average person every week.
Never ever in history since the last Trudeau has there been this many strikes. Never has any politician undermined collective bargaining more than this Government, Supported by the NDP at every step.
There should be no wage increase untill Canada Post is not losing money anymore.
2 new facilities in the last 5 years and $7k quarterly bonuses to management at every level under "hazard pay" could explain alot. The "wages" they talk about include management not just union workers.
