If you expect to loose money as a crown corporation in order to guarantee services to all Canadians, then don’t turn around and try and make it super efficient and profitable by people who have never done the job??

And to my fellow Canadians that keep voting for these idiots, know you understand why Canadian culture is changing. This why we don’t say hello or good morning as much.

I lived abroad in Asia (specifically Japan and South Korea) this past year and saw that service workers don’t get even half the pay as Canadians but are far more efficient and professional with their services (there isn’t even a tipping culture there). Even when Canada Post is functioning, they are always delayed or somehow always end up frustrating you with their services. There’s always something. The amount of laziness, incompetence and settling for pure mediocrity to me is astounding. I honestly couldn’t help but laugh when they announced their strike. These adult babies don’t know how good they have it compared to others.

[@rickbateman2401]

Recently a comparison was done between Dragonfly (formerly Intelcom), a private delivery service that has contracts with Amazon along with other big box stores, and Canada Post. When a Dragonfly van is out on a delivery route, the cost of operation is $25/hr. When a Canada Post van is out on delivery, the cost is $60/hr. Now I won’t say that Dragonfly couldn’t and shouldn’t pay better, but a $35/hr difference in operating costs is massive and completely unjustifiable.

How about $27 to ship a 3" x 3" x 3" box with 90grams in it from Alberta to Montreal? Yet I can ship a 4kg box from here to almost anywhere in the USA for the same Amount via UPS. And yet I have a lousy UPS contract. I find the workers slow and regimented when I'm at the post office. No matter how many people are in the lineup, they just walk away when it's their coffee break, often leaving one person at the counter. And they like to chit chat while we all wait in line. And only Canada Post workers would go on strike and demand a 24% raise knowing their employer was billions in debt and recently lost another 315 million. I would recommend going to a 2 day a week delivery system. Perhaps then employee numbers could be reduced by 30 to 40% to make things more viable. Most of my mail is flyers anyway.

Also you can put up to 11 lbs in that box all for the same cost of under $19 and you get the box. !!!!

Most flyers are online now and for those that aren't , let the kids get vack to delivering them . There are still some kids that would love the chance to earn some money and they have a better work ethic than any postal employee. At least we wouldn't get 4 or5 of the same flyers in our nsil box because the postal employee wants to their day faster. Fire 75%of the regardless of whether it's Privatized or not. It will be run more efficiently and when keep the 25% of employees, they will be the once thst actually want to work. Looking for to Canada post 2.0

[@ShomoGoldburgler]

Can we privatize government as well? Hire a property management company to run Canada's daily affairs *hahahaha*

[@yesmaam4269]

They can't go out once or twice a week to the rural areas it won't work. These are the areas that order online the most. And the areas that fed ex, dhl, ups, transfer to canada post because they loose money going to them. The parcels need delivered daily so might as well drop the letters off at the same time. Unless it's very small community like 10 po boxs or something.

[@steelhorsestudio]

Change the management!! You have that power! Bad management is killing canada post at the cost to Canadians!! Both those that work for Canada post, and those that rely on it, basically everyone. Always bad management, all the way to the top!

[@BuffaloGuy]

Turdeau, Jughead and Blanchette need to be removed and placed in prison for treason against the Canadian People. The BLOC, being a provincial party must be removed from the Federal Parliament. Do we now, all agree, that we need a recall procedure to remove politicians that get carried away like this. We also need an elected Senate where we can hold senators accountable for backing up tyrants like this.

[@TheSilverlady1980]

Trudeau was quick to freeze accounts and run away on vacation and not hear out the truckers. He chose to ignore this Canada Post issue of with holding paid services and keeping people’s purchased property as hostage. Beyond unreasonable! I live far north in Canada we don’t have malls up here. I wanted to buy more of the Black Friday sales but didn’t due to the non delivery. I hope the businesses sue Canada Post. Canada Post needs the Union desolved and get people who appreciate being employed! Or someone should set up a new postal delivery competitor. These current postal workers act like that are still riding pony express and risking life to get the mail through. I have official house purchase and deed out there in the mail somewhere. The email confirmation is just copies and not legal stamped punched and signed documents. This has been maddening.

“Selfish Union people that ruin Christmas for many rural people and businesses!” Canada post should be dissolved and a new business model developed. In 2023, the Crown corporation lost $748 million before tax, which was more than the $548 million loss in 2022.

As much as i dislike current political dispensation.. I support this decision. Canada post starts this bullying tactic every year near Christmas and delays parcels for thousands of Canadians. If you want to negotiate.. negotiate after the holiday season. Don't harass people.

Exactly. They should negotiate when they have absolutely no leverage... Moron.

I wonder what exactly postal workers hope to achieve, they are diminishing in importance and their essential role in every canadian’s day to day experience. Allowing people to live without their work for any period of time on’y speeds their obsolescence, and their jobs to extinction. They sadly should rock the boat as little as possible

[@stanradziwon4359]

Perhaps common people should be notified about Can Post workers perks, about their vacations, personal days, benefits, pensions etc?

[@murrethmedia]

Perhaps common people should unionize so they stop getting bent over by management.

[@YouWinILose]

Why? Canadians deserve good quality of life. They went on strike. They didn't have a good bargaining position. Now the fossil that is Canada Post will finally be restructured and its responsibilities can be updated for a post-letter world. There may be layoffs, there may be useful expansions. This is the best case scenario.

[@brigidspencer5123]

Should we also be notified about your own too?

[@joaniemarjoriemarriott342]

About time to legislate those workers back to their jobs where hopefully they will resume at least a moderate level of zest in exchange for their pay cheques. As a Canadian of over 65 I can see this strike was just a money-grab by workers in a declining industry. Well guess what?. this by this strike the union has managed to turn some Canadians against postal employees. Even as a retiree I will continue to embrace new technologies to avoid having to purchase a stamp and paper just to send a letter. Packages are also of limited occurrence in my life and less so every passing year. Incoming and outgoing payments are almost all done electronically and none are done by mail due to the risk of theft and time delays. Still lots of Canadian small businesses use Canada Post and there are people that do not or can not easily embrace electronic payments, And sending cards and note on attractive stationary has greatly declined due to the cost of food and housing in Canada, no money is leftover for those frivolities.

Good! Get back to work! You are paid more and get better benefits than ups and fedex and you still want more. 11.5% over 4 years is great compared to other that get less. Also its not the unions decision if Canada Post want to deliver on weekends using part time workers, just sit down and do your job. You don't like your job, then quit or find another. I guarantee you, you wont find one in the same field as good as this. Union needs to be abolished, they are business destroyers.

[@majestic-skies]

About time. I'm on the workers side but I dont know how people can defend canada and say its a functional country when we haven't even had our mail delivered for the past month. This is a failure of our government. Work doesnt pay anymore in this country and people are fed up.
