CFIB statement on Canada Post workers rejecting final offer
TORONTO, Aug. 1, 2025 /CNW/ - It's extremely disappointing that the members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) have rejected Canada Post's final offer. This just brings more uncertainty at a time when small businesses are already struggling to plan ahead. We can't keep doing this. If there's another strike, two in three businesses may walk away from Canada Post permanently. We're calling on government to prevent another strike from happening by extending the current collective bargaining agreement for the foreseeable future. Government also needs to immediately give Canada Post the full authority to make the major reforms needed to ensure it is financially sustainable. This will likely require tough decisions, including back-to-work legislation orders. CFIB is calling on all political parties to support the reforms suggested in the Industrial Inquiry report to allow this important service to continue for the long term. - Dan Kelly, President, CFIB About CFIB The Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) is Canada's largest association of small and medium-sized businesses with 100,000 members across every industry and region.

Majority of CUPW-represented employees reject Canada Post's final offers Français
Corporation evaluating next steps following vote outcome OTTAWA, ON, Aug. 1, 2025 /CNW/ - The Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB) has informed Canada Post that a majority of employees represented by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) have voted to reject the Corporation's final offers to both the Urban and RSMC (Rural and Suburban Mail Carriers) bargaining units. This means negotiations between the parties remain unresolved. While we are disappointed in the results, we want to thank employees for participating in the process. We would also like to thank the CIRB for administering the vote. This result does not lessen the urgent need to modernize and protect this vital national service. However, it does mean the uncertainty that has been significantly impacting our business – and the many Canadians and Canadian businesses who depend on Canada Post – will continue. We are evaluating our next steps. TM Trademark of Canada Post Corporation.
