Canada Post strike averted for now as union says it will remain at bargaining table

The union representing thousands of Canada Post workers says it will stay at the bargaining table, averting a potential strike by mid-week.

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers said Monday it would not issue a 72-hour notice of job action, giving the Crown agency’s negotiators an opportunity to address the union’s demands, which include higher wages and better working conditions.

Both sides have been bargaining for separate collective agreements over the past nine months.
