As an ” Part-Time Employee” I am disappointed that we are not treated like a “Regular Employee”when offered the singing bonus for the Canada Post offer. We are treated as ” Casuals” whom are on a “different system” as per the Collective Agreement” We should be getting $1000.00 like the “Full-Time”~ “NOT” $500.00 like the casuals.
This site clearly filters out anything that doesn’t fit management’s narrative. Pathetic.
Who else gets the kind of money that they get. I would be careful that they don’t sell the corporation
To a private company.
I am positive this offer will be accepted.
So you vote yes. For what reason? A thousand dollars bonus, that will end up being what? Less than $700 after the tax is taken off and to get a 1% wage increase this year? When the CPC cost you thousands more (not the union). Turn this lousy offer, if you can call it an offer DOWN. And allow the union to negotiate/fight for you. You will do far better, if you turn it down. This isnt about getting back at the union, this is about NOT screwing yourselves over with a yes vote.
Still prefer getting 700$ then 0$. Also by voting yes we are securing our jobs at least until 2028, which is way better then to live in uncertainty for another year or two, risking lockout, strikes even possible layoffs and having to resort to loans , savings and credit to pay for bills.
No vote will win. Its a garbage offer!
When those layoffs start kicking in will you pay peoples mortgages?
It’s illegal to layoff workers while they’re on strike.
Who’s on strike? You could go into work your next shift and be handed a lay off notice
People in the medical field would love the offer that you make. I think the post workers were spoiled for so long. Be careful. And think long and hard . They just won’t keep losing money.
A yes, Voltz, ensures that everybody’s on board for the next 2 years after the postal review coming this fall, it’s highly likely that if you don’t have app to 10 years seniority, you can and will be laid off when that happens, the union has to switch gears and fight for the blade off worker, it’s inevitable that there’s going to be layoffs. The union won’t save all of us… Even with a no vote
In case of layoffs seniority may not even be taken into account.
Censored multiple times today. Nice job, CP!
Yes or No it doesn’t really matter. The same incompetent people will run the company without a clue how to do so. They are incapable of making efficient change. CPC is not privatizing CPC is not shutting down. This is all for giggles the show will go on! We just sent 1B to Ukraine they can print money out of thin air for the post office we all good folks!
then go work elsewhere if it’s this bad and stop complaining.
I will carry the union flag til the end. My brother’s and sisters we must stay and fight the good fight. Power to the people . My name is not corporate,it is worker!
lol, CupW supports the non worker.
I never once needed CupW because I DO my job as I’m expected and paid to do!!
Those words all sounds “amazing”, but in the end if the people don’t have money to pay their bills and a roof over their head, they simply won’t care about “union flags “ ,”movements”…
Just because a yes vote is a no confidence in cupw doesnt mean we dont want a union…just dont want this union!and as for what cupw has said for always having our say for input for negotions…not thinking thats true at all…they dont want the memberships input on the reality of cpcs financial situation either…well thisvvote forces the “union”to accept our input!!!
Then start the decertification process. Voting yes this way sets a horrible precedent for unions across the country. No employer will ever feel they need to negotiate again. If they can just say “final offer” and then get the government to force a vote, unions die!
Every other union would do the same things that cupw is doing, you aren’t going to escape that
Name one
More businesses are leaving Cpc and signing up with competitors. Number 1 reason ,lack of trust with on going strife between Cpc and Cupw. So it’s obvious continue this public relations nightmare and we can all work for dollarama. Wish I could be public relations spokesperson for Cpc. Sounds like an easy gig
Many times…and I mean probably about a dozen now…I’ve tried to set the record straight on these threads about our Charter Rights about negotiating with our employer. Not one of these posts have been displayed. I have used no bad language, I have not pointed out anyone by name, I have only pointed out our rights and how they are being taken away from us, explaining exactly how this is a forced vote. The employer DOES NOT, anywhere in the Charter Of Rights or the Labour Code, have a right to have employees vote on a contract. The ONLY way they can have this take place is to have the government, in this case Patty Hajdu, intervene in the bargaining process and compel a vote before employees are meant to do so. That is the textbook definition of a “forced vote”. I don’t care how everyone votes, I’m positive this offer will be rejected. But please stop saying this isn’t a forced vote…it absolutely is, in every sense of the word.
This is the problem with this company. They will screen you and continue to break the rules in their favour.
No vote all the way
You clearly don’t understand how a Crown corp or the Canada Labour Code works. Nice try, though. I voted yes.
Please tell me how it works then. I can point out section and paragraph of what I’m saying. Please show your work.
You can kiss your jobs goodbye then.
big no all the way
I agree 100%. Vote No.
There are no good choices here. A yes vote removes years of what past negotiations have brought to benefit us and a no vote will put the corporation one step closer to bankruptcy which runs the risk of not getting bailed out by the government. As a recent retiree, I am hoping for a yes vote to help ensure sustainability of the pension but if I was still a worker I think I would have a tough time giving up so much. Life as a letter carrier will never be the same. Still not sure why through route ownership why they wouldn’t have letter carriers deliver mail on Tuesdays and Thursdays and parcels on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Kind of a no brainer but not all the decision makers are playing with a full deck. Good luck brothers and sisters.
Will CUPW be covering our prescriptions, extended medical, dental, vision, hearing, and disability insurance in the event we’re locked out for rejecting the offer?
There won’t be a lockout, it’ll go binding, the minister will be telling both sides what the next step will be.
Guaranteed it will be less than the offer. Seen this play out before brothers and sisters
Hahahahahahahahahaha
I am totally convinced that I have a chance to accept or reject a vote that will change the future of Canada Post. You have the same chance. That my friends is power. You should feel very satisfied.
We said. We all have a choice now.
Oops. It should be: “Well said. We all have a choice now.”
Vote for whatever you want.
Accept or reject.
Just vote.
Hope for a 51:49 split so that there is a possibility of binding arbitration.
yess
Lol…50 to 49 where’s the other one percent… If it’s 50%, yes, then the contract passes. If it’s 50%, no, then the the union wants to continue to negotiate. But I think if the no vote wins, the government will Force binding arbitration. That’s a possibility, and there’s a possibility, a no vote could get you locked out…
Why is the union desperately spreading FUD to get members to not accept a generous offer that keeps all their benefits and pension, with a double-digit wage increase and a signing bonus?
It’s because this vote is also a confidence vote on CUPW.
A resounding acceptance of the offer means the union members have no confidence in the current CUPW executives and negotiators, and they should resign if they have any decency.
That’s brilliant! A resounding no confidence vote to decertify the union will guarantee job loss, less wages, zero job security. Glad you’ve thought this through!
I agree 100%. No Way should youvote yes to yry and bring down the union. Youll be hurting yourselves. You think you dont matter now? Do away with your protection (the union), then your eyes will open wide. Amazon closes up shop whenever a group of employees want to start a union. Because having your employees work without protection keeps them under your thumb. The CEO can do whatever they like to them ( keep wages low, layoffs, poor working conditions, give you less benefits (if any at all)? Change the way you work, whenever they feel like it. There was a reason why people applied to work for Canada Post. Because the wages were fair, they have maternity leave, decent benefits, good working conditions etc ALL THINGS THE UNION/WORKERS FOUGHT FOR. Now you want to throw many of those things away? With a yes vote? Avoid hurting yourself and others by voting no.
It’s not a great or generous offer but it is one I can accept. The union has always like to spread their doom and gloom prophecies on any changes that comes our way. I remember when I was first hired in the late 2000 the union president for our local was saying how PT was the end of us. I actually like PT much better than the old way of delivering. So I don’t really put too much stock in any negative predictions from the union.
Boy they have the new people right where they want them. The next contract is going to be a doozy.
Its a contract crap offer vote, not a union decertification vote
It’s a vote for a good offer with a bonus of sending cupw a clear message from their members that they can’t ignore this time. Enough with signing up working groups that have nothing to with our job classifications, enough with the social justice movements, and enough with the political views and agendas the exec keeps pushing. You are paid by us and supposed to be working for us.
That’s it boss, keep up with the command and control way of managing employees. See how that works with the 20-30 year age group
Generous offer? You will be very upset with their generosity when you are in ssd, and then dynamic routing. In 2028 when this contract is done, they will complete their mission
IF YOU VITE NO THEY WILL LOCK US OUT ! And you will be sitting there at home waiting for your phone call to be laid off. Seniority will not matter you will jump everytine the phone rings. A YES got will give you two years of lease of mind!! Don’t be fooled this is simply a matter of ECONOMICS!
A matter of economics??? You realize you have to pay for things 2 and a half years from now, too, right? You vote yes, you’re voting yourself out of a job. Canada Post has made this very clear in their report to the IIC. Changing their model to majority part time and flex work pushes out full time workers. Two years of peace of mind?? Good gravy!
Stop your absurd fear mongering and enjoy the summer! Most of my coworkers have made phenomenal investments over the years and aren’t too concerned how this all plays out. Not everyone is freaked out and lives paycheque to paycheque. Relax and enjoy life!
here here
So true. I’m on holidays for 3 weeks soon. Could care less about this place
Then why bother commenting?
You mean couldn’t care less me thinks
take a teaspoon of salt
and VOTE NO!
Don’t tell me what to do
job loss is coming with a yes and a no vote
Collection of 6 Million every year from members hard work money. Huge collection means chances of corruption are there.
Re-structuring of union is required with low fund deduction as follows:
1. All union reps even president should come for work as assigned.
2. Meetings with management should held around work place.
3. Fund deduction should not me more than $5.00 Monthly.
The union collects roughly $ 60 million every year, not $6 million. $ 95 per month or $1140.00 per year from each employee multiplied by roughly 54000 employees. How many feel they are getting their $1140.00 worth ?
Yes I do
25,000 of those are management now.
I do
Vote casting is very easy. Why CUPW is sending emails everyday to say strong ‘NO’. If anyone do not have internet access or phone , means that he is far from understanding the offer & voting system that’s why CUPW is confusing them. CUPW is in favour of paper voting for them and it’s already accepted. CUPW is confusing the members. Please stop sending emails everyday and stop spending union funds in spreading lies on media. Leave the members as their own now. People do not want to die in cold weather sitting in front of burning wood. Members are aware now what they should do.
After all the corporate pushing and pleading to accept this offer, it is very clear to the employees which way they should vote.
no
it is clear
Unions were good at one point (many many years ago) but now they are ruining businesses and peoples lives.
Go work at Dragonfly. Before your first break, if you get one, you will be praying you were in a union.
Uni Uni, DoorDash and Uber is where many of us be employed by soon if we get locked out.
lol don’t worry it’ll go binding
Who will fight for fair wages, who will fight against bad working conditions or fight for benefits? Workers will just end up under the thumb of the CEO’s and executives. Just the way they want it. And they’ll still collect their outrageous salaries and bonuses.
Remember: The Union is your not your best source of information about negotiations.
Do not fall for rumours or misinformation, above all from CUPW.
And who is?? Canada Post?? Please!
Accept the deal, they made us an offer we can’t refuse
Wanna bet?
I’m siding with Anonymous.
Enjoy unemployment! Because that’s what we’ll get with a NO vote
Only someone who has no understanding about what’s going on would think this. A yes vote is a path to layoffs and rollbacks.
It’s coming in 2028 regardless. Might as well go down swinging
I guess CPC should think about selling some trucks and maybe even Albert Jackson. I doubt they will ever hit “1 million parcels a day” again.
So many simple-minded people running this place. Can’t wait for the outcome of the review in the fall.
I am curious. I see so many posts ranting against CPC, some even cheering and hoping for the failure of the organization. I have a simple question. How would the failure of Canada Post benefit you?
Management will be the first to go. If they cut jobs, they’ll just create more overtime. Which I’ll gladly take. They can barely staff the depot correctly even when we have no mail
It won’t fail, reviews have happened so many times and we are still here. Every time we are told the sky is falling
It’s amazing…all of the fake employee posts.
Hey CP, why won’t you let us comment on the APOC and CPAA posts????
Agreed
When can we post on the CupW site??
Never, they don’t actually want our opinion.
That’s what monthly meetings are for
So in other words CupW doesn’t want to know what the WORKERS
want.
The slackers is all they are concerned about.
Again, you are welcome to attend the meetings
They don’t even respond to my email or phone calls let alone have a forum
Fake employees? This may be difficult for you to understand, but there are more employees who work here beyond CUPW, and every single one of us has a vested interest in the outcome of these negotiations. Many of us started as CUPW and chose a different path; we understand the concerns with the proposed changes, but we also see a different perspective from the various roles we are in. Regardless of who you think is to blame, the reality is the company is severely struggling to remain viable and competitive and major changes need to happen. There have already been job cuts to management, HR, training departments, and numerous others; you’re not the only ones being effected here.
Exactly you chose a different path. Please don’t comment on OUR contract.
It affects more than you. That was the only point and you respond with “me me me me me!”
That says all anyone needs to know.
Yep. It’s all about you. Who cares who gets effected they don’t get a voice, only you.
If cpc execs won’t accept they are to blame and all must step down, voting yes or no will be for naught because it will not improve or change anything
Hard to read all those ignorant cupw notes.
I agree with Anju and common sense, and accepted the offer.
Hahahaha oh dear…
I voted yes! I followed the proceedings and the negotiations. The offer is a chunk.
I think you meant to say it was junk.
The union keep saying this is a forced vote. Please how? The employer has right to call for votes as provided by the constitution.
The union called for paper votes and notified us THROUGH EMAIL. They said not everyone has access to internet. But there is offline voting though, which can be done with one’s phone number. Unless not everyone has a phone and a number.
Yes, the union has come this far and their push actually made CPC to up their offers and drop certain positions. Kudos to the union. At this point, however, it makes sense to accept what is on the table. It’s almost 2 years into this back and forth and remaining 2 years and couple of months to the next.
I say hit, take a chunk, go back and strategize again.
If we accept this offer, there will be no bargaining in 2028
If we don’t, there will be no CPC in 2028
That’s not true. We will have a new contract negotiated in 2028, hopefully with a new union that is rational and sensible.
It gonna happen, there has been talk of a new union coming in to save the day for decades niw
Yes there will be, the company can not sens us one offer and say it’s their final offer. We’ll do the same song and dance, go out on strike, with 95% of us wanting it, when we really don’t, and then they will ask the CIRB to allow us to vote, but don’t forget, even they said no originally, but since we had jo movement in talks, the agreed to let us vote.
Sorry but I’m having a hard time reading this lol
Why?
Where in the offers are all these cuts and rollbacks that the union keeps talking about only one I see is 5 min washup
Not true. Changes have to be made to the delivery model and after this contract is finalized we need to build back the business.
The employer does not have a right to ask for a vote from union members. I’m sorry, but you’re wrong about this. This is why Canada Post needed Patty Hajdu to intervene. That makes this a “forced vote”.
A forced vote that cpc is hiding behind because they never had any intention of negotiating.as evidenced over the past 2 years. For those who do not understand, the act of voting is not the problem. Its being made to vote when no agreement was ever reached with or approved by our charter protected right to collective bargaining agent.
Not sure an agreed settlement would happen? The list of demands by CUPW is outrageous. What Union demands that a company change their revenue streams (ie. EV charging stations, senior check-ins, craft fairs) and demands adding thousands of employees to payroll (cleaning staff and snow removal)? Rather than focus on improved wages and benefits, and working with CPC on changes that are necessary to stay competitive, they chose demands that add no value to our business and have stonewalled every single proposed change to the outdated delivery model. Not suggesting CPC shouldn’t shoulder some blame, but I can’t see how the list of demands by the Union are very reasonable.
I will try one more time. Forget the union demands for a secon . Democratic Voting is not the problem. The problem is the govt forcing us into the act of voting on a contract offer cpc did not negotiate with our charter protected union representation. Basically this sets up precedent to eliminate all unions not just cupw down the road. And then where will you be? Either unemployed or working 60 hours a week 6 days a week for minimum wage. Enjoy that if your blasted yes vote goes through
The union was trying to negotiate for future workers, including part-time cleaners and snow removal people. No one submitted this type of resolution. Your union had its agenda
CUPW stonewalled the whole time. Had no intention of bargaining in good faith. Stop spreading mis information.
Lol…Hadju is the one who decided we vote on. Final offer
No. You are wrong. Any company can request employees to vote on a contract during a labor disruption.
Enough of the “forced vote” propaganda. It is a fabricated lie. Check the labor code.
Patty Hajdu is not intervening but made a decision on whether CPC’s request is legit. It is legit.
Correct
100% don’t vote then. Who cares
Incorrect. Anyway it’s semantics at the end of the day. The vote is here and we get a say, hooray!
Not semantics. It is the truth. You wrong again and will continue to be wrong.
You are right, they keep harping about it being forced and how it’s not fully accessible. This in a nutshell demonstrates why we are in this position. The union would argue that up is down at this point, while saying the Company is not making any effort. It’s tiring to even imagine having to deal with that. They delay everything with grievances and litigation…no wonder nothing gets done. The company has no upside to stalling. This is all on the union this time. Delays are the reason why we lost probably $500 million in the last 9 months
Look who’s back! Typical bosses blaming the workers for their troubles. I took 2 sides to get us to this point, equally to blame
Not equally at all, since the union has no skin in this game right now. They have rejected everything with a gusto not seen on the work floor. You continue to get full pay and benefits while thinking that this will not have a negative effect on your job in the end.
Absolutely there is blame on both sides, if you think otherwise you are clearly not looking hard enough. They have both created this mess. The corporation and the union have decades of bad blood between them, and now it is coming to a head with neither side willing to bend. It is clear the corporation wants a delivery model similar to the company that delivers Amazon parcels now, lower paying jobs that people will leave in 3-5 years and move on to something else. CPC doesn’t want long term employees, quite clearly. The union wants to preserve the jobs we have now. This company has been steered from both sides of the car, and the cliff is in sight.
While it took two sides to get us to this point, CUPW is the main culprit. To the public, the company is asking for changes to save the company and our jobs, while the union is blocking them and focuses on ridiculous demands.
Is gigifying Canada post not a ridiculous demand? Wake up. Who gains from that? Who needs to make all that money at the expense of the entire work force? Who will then have any money to purchase anything if the war on workers continues unabated?
If your side didn’t want delays you should have made a decent offer. CPC has been trying to dismantle the union for decades. They are so focused on this, and have unfortunately gutted the business in the process. If you truly wanted to grow the business, try working with the union instead of pointing the finger at them and blaming them for all your problems. Just a question for you: why do you hate the workers so much? Your posts clearly express this.
Just Soupin pot stirring as usual
Our payroll for 9 months comes no where near $500 million. Explain that number again. No grievances filed where no grievances exist. If there is a disagreement it must be settled this way so that the contract is withheld. It cost money for each grievance to both sides so frivolous grievances are avoided. Go ask your new supervisor a question or request his/her assistance if you wanna see nothing get done. The newbies are all trained by newbies. If you wanna see a blank stare start using CPC lingo like C8 or LFT. Pretty funny that they have these rookies trolling the forum bashing the union. This whole accept/reject vote is just another delay instigated by CPC. It will clearly be a REJECT. Go ahead and twist it any way you will, this forum is all part of your weak plan.
think again — payroll runs around $135 million every single payday which in turn is around $2,75billion in 9 months WELL over 500million. Get your facts straight. We are broke
I’m guessing lots of comments being censored today
Other union leaders are saying wish we could take those offers to our membership they’ll ratifie that in a heartbeat
Do you have a source on that?
Isn’t this thread bad enough without resorting to blatant lies??
How do you know its blatant lies? I hate to say this but we dont have the support of other unions like we did last year
Have you heard anything like this?? I have the internet, too.
Where are they then? Its radio silence
You also don’t have the support of many Canadians. This is ridiculous and a bad look.
THAT is completely untrue. Canadians want a national postal system. Canada Post is trying desperately to take it away from them!
I don’t know why the union is so hung up on future workers with a postful review. There’s no doubt that there’s going to be layoffs so maybe they should concentrate on contract language in regards to recall rights…
We forgot to wear black shirts and make noise on the shop floor so CPC knows we really truly seriously mean business fer realz this time.
Last time that happened I my depot, didn’t bring a black shirt. First of all I’m not anyone’s “sheep”, second, I find those kind of things really cheesy and childish and don’t really produce any results ,it’s a waste of time.
Hear hear! Or is it here here? You get the point.
Just rejected the offer. It is still bad no matter how much these shills say it isn’t. Hard to read all the ignorant company posts. It will be good when this forum stops all this nonsense.
No one made you be on this forum did they? Enough said!
Getting a signing bonus and a raise. Ask former Hudson’s Bay employees how this is a bad deal (as you all seem to assume) as I’m sure many of them would gladly take a job at CP under that offer.
I don’t see people lining up to work here, it’s toxic
No one applies at the place of business. They’re looking to work at most of that is done online…
Ahhhh gotcha
In most cases toxic people make toxic work places. All you have to do is watch some of the videos out there. Totally unprofessional behavior on the work floor and no I’m not management. Its just embarrassing. I was also kicked off of a CUPW / CPAA facebook site for defending another CUPW member who said he was voting Yes. He was being bullied apparently I broke their rules, they didn’t realize copy to clipboard holds their foul comments forever, they needed to be shared now they are there forever.
no one should be bullied even if you are voting yes or no
Ask current airline pilots who got 42 % raises how this is a good deal ( as you incorrectly assume) and I’m sure not one would even get out of bed for this sham of an offer. Your comment has nothing to do with anything
Please don’t compare apples to oranges. The airlines are raking in profit amid continuous air travel recovery, while CPC is losing money with a deteriorating business. We are lucky to have any wage increase with no cut in benefits.
How can you even compare glorified paper boys and warehouse workers to airline pilots?! Those people risk their lives and are in charge of 100s of people daily.They deserve every raise they get…
Us too!
I remember my parents driving me around to do my paper route as a young teenager; now I have a driver’s licence, a corporate vehicle and pension to do the same job. Thanks Mom and Dad for making me the man I am today.
That’s a stretch.
It never was posties vs pilots I was making a point. I hope this one actually posts. During covid we were delivering a million parcels a day. Airlines were dying on the vine. Now they came back strong and making money while cpc dwindled it all away. Big difference when being run by people who actually know what theyre doing.
So you are comparing your situation???.Pilots will be in demand for the foreseeable future.Pilots are highly skilled.Pilots have theirs and people’s lives in their hands.With reasoning like yours no wonder this union is so out of touch
Getting a signing bonus and a raise. Ask current airline pilots who got 42 % how this is a good deal (as you seem to assume) as I’m sure many of them would not even get out of bed for CP under that offer
Guess what? We don’t fly planes
We are not skilled workers, just people with strong backs and common sense.
Don’t compare us to pilots
Hey cupw I voted yes.
Offer accepted here! 13% over 4 years is a great deal.
lol you can’t be serious. Do you realize how little we have got over the last few contracts?
A great deal you say? Add another 10 to 15 points on that and we might,maybe catch up to cost of living increases
Better deal than any other industry right now. Never enough for you posties though. How about trying to be thankful for what you got? These unrealistic expectations will see all of you looking for new employment sooner than later
CUPW keeps on speaking about future employees… the future employee issue has cost all of us decent raises. What about we fix Canada post first before we thing about future employees???!
We need to accept this offer to have a future. With cupw the only future is lockouts and layoffs. If cupw isn’t restructured from top to bottom the only alternative is privatize or dissolve Canada Post as a crown corporation. It can start over as a non-profit entity with no government mandate or financial support. Profit making markets can be expanded and profit losing markets can be cut. Hire new board members, new management, new employees and get rid of the union. As a taxpayer, this would get my vote. Maybe anyone who doesn’t like this solution should stop and think before sacrificing their current situation for one with no future.
Where in your sorry sad post is there any mention of all the damage exec cpc board caused and still is as we speak because they aren’t being held accountable?
Who should hold them accountable if I may ask? You? The union?
Everyone should hold them accountable! They’ve blown 8 billion dollars over the same number of years yet are still in control calling the shots and making this crap.offer to us with you still defending them
Show me the numbers.
I voted No and keep on flapping my chicken Elbows
I receive so many union email letters lately, like never before!!
If I vote *no*, and a *no* vote wins, does the union guarantee me a better offer than CPC final offer in terms of salary raise, a better signing bonus, lost strike salary refund, guaranteed overtime, no more Cuba trips?
The union is not on the side of the workers, or public interests, or good faith bargaining, or common fiscal sense. They keep pushing an adversarial agenda, and a no vote – telling the workers to reject a 13% wage increase. Chances are the postal workers want to keep their jobs. The union is actually jeopardizing their jobs
ACCEPTED the offer, in solidarity with fellow workers that give their 100% and want the company to succeed.
Well that is just fantastic
I’ve voted to ACCEPT the offer. The offer keeps the existing pension and benefits for all temporary workers when we become permanent, and there will be lots more part-time positions to move into with the new contract, so it’s a win-win for us, the often-forgotten temps.
lol you should have thought a bit more on this, the days of getting full time work at CPC are dwindling
At least theyll get pt which is better than nothing and their foot in the door…not everyone wants full time
And your NO vote will guarantee more full time jobs??
It’s accept or reject. Not yes or no.
According to Cupw vote NO. So im confused cause I’m looking at my choices and no where does it say No . Maybe if Cupw said vote reject more people would be less confused. But that would make too much sense
I’m sure you’ll figure it out eventually
CULT members hitting the floors HARD. They got whistles and stickers to intimidate management and civilians.
All the CUPW execs and the president have been living it up, coffee, doughnuts, and no real work for awhile we’re the ones funding it with our union dues. Hopefully the “yes” vote goes through so they can finally get back to work like us. They’ve been sitting around long enough on our dime.
If only there was a commission to review and overhaul CUPW.
Yesss.
Warriors, come out to play, vote yes , or accept, we are the champions!
I’ve heard Cupw preach. Ive heard Cpc preach. Both come across with doomsday results if we don’t accept or reject. Playing us inmates for pawns and trying to fear us into voting has left me with a bad taste in my mouth. No listering can clean it up. I don’t care what happens ,I’m skipping the vote.
I voted yes today. I think the vote will be close. I originally stated a 59% Yes vote. I think it will be close and a NO vote may win. What’s sad is out Union/cult isn’t giving members proper information. If the NO goes will prob be locked out and get worse then offer. Just following history of our bargaining and logic.
YESSSS,ACCEPT, everyone is tired of this nonsense, the employees, the public, and cupw,
The union is worried about losing a 5 minute. Wash up time some of the members don’t bathe or do laundry on A. Regular basis, maybe you could get after them to clean up their act. Hopefully they print this comment.. It’s not fair. All the union’s problem. The corporation needs to clean up the toxic working environments, including things. The hygiene of some of the employees
I find it funny that CUPW newest bulletin states that everything that they said would happen if we vote yes is in fact not happening with this contract.
Oh it will, wait till 2028
Got in early yesterday and voted to reject final offer. Change needs to start from the top!
That’s why they’re doing a full postal review in the fall.Things are going to change on both sides
Offer ACCEPTED!!!
More text messages from Cupw in past week then last 20 yrs . I love the way they beg and anxiety panic attacks are running through their veins. I’m glad their getting their own medicine.
The corp is sweating this too, seems as though their plan could be in jeopardy despite their ad blitz
I have locked out picket signs ready to ship across the country with CUPW Delivery Service. Don’t worry it’ll come out of our union dues.
Now CUPW is paying for ads on facebook lolllll

Canada Post is calling this forced vote “Your Future. Your Vote. It’s telling postal workers to vote yes for a better future. But here’s the future they’re really pushing:
This isn’t the future we want or deserve. This vote isn’t about giving workers power. It’s about forcing the Employer’s agenda. Their plan is clear and we’re rejecting it.
Vote NO to defend your rights, your job, and your public postal service.
#VoteNO #CanLab #cdnpoli
Voting was easy. Can we hire the Simply Voting IT department to fix CPC Employee Self Serve?
How much is strike pay now? And will those cheques be late again? Asking for a soon to be locked out postie.
I don’t think that what we see on here and other group is representative of the 55k votes, ppl who vote yes don’t brag about it
Why not? Everyone is entitled to vote the way they want and express it on here.We’re not on a CUPW website where we have to keep our opinions to ourselves
Another reason why I voted yes. Today’s news: Toronto Star -labour experts state a no vote will result in either lockout or layoffs. Financial Post- businesses are already leaving Canada Post. Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB)- 63% of Canadian small businesses will leave Canada Post permanently if a no vote results in a work stoppage. Cupw- vote no and we can trade our “on strike “ picket signs for “locked out “ picket signs.
In the news today::::
If Canada Post workers vote ‘no’ on final offer, lockout or layoffs likely, experts say
Experts, who say Canada Post’s offer will likely be rejected, have mixed opinions on next steps with some saying layoffs or a lockout are inevitable for the money hemorrhaging Crown corporation.
so much for the cupw lies saying they will negotiate haha. another cupw lie exposed.

Wow 3 posts in a row by you saying the same thing
I only posted the first one, guess I’m not the only one who pays attention to the news and still wants to work instead of standing on a picket line.
Yes!!! I want to work as well! Best deal going. Accept
Here is my statement and why im voting yes:
Fellow members,
A “no” vote today isn’t just a simple rejection of this proposal—it unleashes a wave of uncertainty that sweeps across every one of us. Without a ratified agreement, there’s no guarantee we’ll see improved wages, enhanced benefits, or job protections. In fact, management could come back with an even tougher offer down the road, one that strips away the modest gains we’ve fought so hard to secure.
What keeps me up at night is the realization that we may be battling for the future of employees who might never get to call Canada Post home. Every day of stalled negotiations brings us closer to financial instability for the Crown corporation. If Canada Post falters or folds, none of our lofty demands or principled stands will matter—there won’t be a Canada Post to negotiate with.
Some will argue the union has its own shortcomings, and they’re right. The biggest source of pushback stems from a perception that union leadership refused to entertain even one of the operational changes Canada Post needs to modernize and grow. That hardline stance may feel principled, but in the long run it threatens our jobs and bargaining power.
At the same time, many members sit on the sidelines. They’re disengaged, disillusioned by internal politics, or simply exhausted by the process. I get it. But right now, we can’t afford apathy. This vote isn’t about internal squabbles—it’s about safeguarding our livelihoods and the viability of an institution that employs thousands.
Here’s what a “yes” vote actually brings to the table:
– Stability for today and tomorrow: We lock in improvements now rather than gamble on a better deal that may never materialize.
– Protection of existing benefits: Pensions, health care, and sick leave enhancements are preserved under the current offer.
– A stronger Canada Post: By agreeing to reasonable operational changes, we enable the company to compete, invest in new technology, and stay solvent.
– Future bargaining power: A stable, thriving Canada Post in 2028 means we negotiate from a position of strength—not desperation.
– Unity of purpose: Demonstrating that we can compromise for the greater good strengthens solidarity among all members.
I know there are voices demanding a harder line. I respect that passion. But when push comes to shove, I’d rather guarantee our jobs today than risk losing everything for an ideal that may never arrive. We owe it to new hires, to our families, and to ourselves to come back stronger, united, and ready for the challenges ahead.
Please cast your vote thoughtfully. A “yes” secures the future of our work and empowers us to rebuild Canada Post into the robust, competitive institution we all want it to be.
God bless—and thank you for standing with me in this crucial moment.
My Lord! Even the corporate bots forget to change their handles!
This I clear speaking anju. Simple anju must be getting more donuts for the crew. Oh wait, now clear speaking anju is anonymous. Nicely done. We all know that the aggressive anti union comments are management. You got your forced vote. No one I gonna change their minds from now till August 1st. Srop with the divisive nonsense already. Have a little dignity

Anju is back
you damn skippy son. she will be president for 20 years. god bless paper ballots.
funny no other union has commented or said anything about what is going on LOL. cupw has no support what so ever. other unions and members all over do not support cupw. time to take the long flight to cuba.
UFCW negotiator said you, we are idiots if we don’t take this and he thinks that CUPW will negotiate us out of a job. I sadly agree with him.
Cupw is reeing so hard. Post after post to vote no. Pathetic.
The cupw Kool-Aid drinkers are reeeeing. Love it.
I don’t know what “reeeeing” means, but I wonder if anyone actually asked people how they voted today when they went to work? I talked to 13 people (I counted) and each one voted “no”. These weren’t friends of mine…just co-workers. I’m sure some people there voted “yes”, but you’d think at least one of the 13 would have said “yes”. Just food for thought.
I also find it amusing that this person above keeps using “CUPW Kool-Aid drinkers” like my vote had anything to do with CUPW. If you think this vote was about showing up CUPW, then you have major concerns in your life.
Many won’t admit they voted yes due to backlash from coworkers. Many voted no in protest of CUPW as it is the only way to send a strong message CUPW ignores members the rest of the time.
So if they think there will be backlash, why are the “yes” voters so sure they’ll win??
Who said they’re sure the yes votes will win? We won’t know until the votes are counted. I have had several conversations with colleagues who say they are voting yes, and as soon as someone walks in the room the conversation gets shut down for fear of backlash from the die hard no voters.
You come on here raging to anyone who suggests they’ll vote yes and spew all the reasons why they shouldn’t be, like it’s your business to change people’s minds.
Exactly
They just told you that to avoid arguments— you probably bully them on more than 1 occasion, people just want to shut you up
I voted yes because a no vote doesnt guarantee any future gains and uncertainty will just continue.
Yes!!
CUPWs days of ruining Canada Post and supporting the worst employees are over. This vote was easy and fair without cUPw propaganda thrown in our faces!!
Welcome to 2025, good night CUPW!
This message is brought up o you by the CPC bargaining committee
Unionization grants agency. That doesn’t mean I should have to surrender my agency when I find myself on the other side of union negotiations. Unions are good in the same way that defence attourneys are. Good for the people they represent, and good for society. But everything they ask for is not necessarily good for everybody.
I hope it becomes a great practice when Canada Post makes decent final offer proposals to its workers BEFORE the agreement contract date !!
Voted yes. Hope you get dismantled Cupw. You can’t cheat your way out of this one.
Vote is not about the union genious. Its about a cpc blown money everywhere cover up to deflect all blame onto employees as if we had the authority to ok those spends on items never to be seen again including executive bonuses in the millions
Wrong. Members are voting yes because they do not support cupw. Cupw is useless and past its best beforr date. I voted yes out of spite!
Wonderful! You’ll lose your job out of spite. Genius!
What will your no vote bring? Experts and customers have provided their opinions through the various media sources, please enlighten us all with your knowledge and wisdom.
The union is no better with its money. It’s always broke
But cpc can squirm out of all their responsibility with blind yes followers like you
REJECT
I voted yes because this contract will get me to retirement. I am not concerned at all about future workers or the fate of this crown corporation. I have given more than enough of myself over the years to call it quits albeit not quit at a full pension. Enough is enough. I know a lot of members have the same thought process as I do.
Yes
E
S
Voted yes it’s the best way forward
You make a lot of redundant comments
He meant best way forward for him to get to the food bank even sooner because of voting yes
CUPW said to vote no. But no wasn’t an option. The choices were accept or reject. I’m so confused. I tried to do the right thing and called the hall. But I could only get to voice mail which has been the case for over ten years. So I did my best in this impossible situation and did what Ethan Hunt would do. I chose to accept.
Accept means Yes.
Reject means No.
I accept that I will lose weight ,accept that I will cut back on drinking ,accept I will quit all gambling and wait for it…… have any interest in accepting or rejecting this vote since both Cpc and Cupw have both given me a good livelihood.
Let’s go !!!!!! YES. The true vote and voices will rise ….. enough is enough with union politics garbage dreams that caused plenty of losses to our pockets through the years. CUPW should just help the people that have issues doing their jobs.
to the new Canada post

Grow up.
Wow CPC is really sweating now. The jig is up. All the scam no money except for our bonuses bs is over. Enjoy being dragged kicking and screaming i nto the light of day for the shysters you really are
To accept the reject is like admiting there is no Santa Clause.
There is a 50/50 shot that accept or reject will come out victorious
I accept to change my name to anonymos. I reject the notion that so many people are named anonymos. I accept that Cupw has done everything they can to get the workers to reject. And lastly I will not accept anybody forcing me to reject any vote.
Yes all day long no to cupw
I already voted YES, because I refuse to live in tents.
Go buy a tent because you voted yes. You so do not understand whats happening here.
He/she does understand.
I like camping
I like hotels paid by membership dues.
Me too
. Camping is the best!!
