Well, it looks like Canada Post will be striking as early as Friday. This is a good news/bad news thing. Good news, there is an agreement in place to ensure that Government cheques will be delivered, bad news, that's ALL that will be delivered.
I understand the desire for a wage increase, but, if CP is saving their revenues are down 17%, how can they afford what the union is asking for. If, long term, they come to some agreement, you will see yet another increase in the postal rates.
Here's hoping the 'good stuff' comes in the mail before they strike - and if they do strike, it's not for months. Then again...imagine our mailboxes when they do start delivering again!!
