Canada Post - Huge losses

We were shipping about 24K daily thru CP before the strike. We re-routed what we could... not feasible to re-route everything. Our backlog is growing by about 7K each day of the strike.
On that note, I should check my mailbox sometime. It's normally weeks between times I open it. Make sure it's empty so there's room for a pile of junk when it eventually ends.
 
I'll just add...
CP over-pays for outside services.. trucking, etc... some times double what they should.
CP also gives away millions of dollars in consumable products to other companies.
 
Good news is there should be significantly less mail to deliver after this has finished as the last mail users are finding better ways.

I'll take that bet.
 
The police will be jealous of that bull bar. How often do they think they will be ramming people in the CP truck?
It's to protect all the parcels in the front storage area!
 
50 bucks volume on mail and parcels down 20% in 2025 vs 2024 with adjustment for the strike time.

Don't forget private boxes at most every arena and stadium.

Intended to stop posties who forgot to deliver the flyers to the previous point.
 
Walking routes were screwed years ago.
Are you scabbing welfare cheques?
CP is asking for volunteers to deliver the cheques. So far it's been going out every day.
 
AND then they stay unpaid for another hour? to collate flyers for the next day.

This is simply wrong. Do not work for free. If delivery of mail and/or collation of flyers requires overtime, so be it. If management refuses overtime, then the work isn't done.

If management is insistent on flyers being collated for the next day, break off mail delivery early. Any left over mail becomes someone else's job for the following day.
 
To be fair, CP is doomed on pricing when they have a union workforce are are competing with piecework contractors. They can't offer the service at a competitive rate. Their best bet is to lean on the monopoly and force all parcel delivery companies to pay living wage. Jt may go for that. Pp will let them die.
