The article criticizes the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) for its handling of a labor dispute with Canada Post. It focuses on CUPW’s recent decision to ban the delivery of commercial flyers, arguing that this action is insufficient and continues a pattern of preventing meaningful resistance against the government’s attacks on postal worker jobs and working conditions.
The article contends that the flyer ban is a weak substitute for a previous overtime ban, which lasted over three months. The author suggests that CUPW is deliberately hindering any genuine struggle by postal workers. The piece implies that CUPW is prioritizing its own interests over those of its members by accepting inadequate measures and effectively collaborating with the government and Canada Post management. The article strongly suggests that CUPW’s actions are undermining postal workers’ ability to defend their livelihoods and fight against the ongoing erosion of their rights and working conditions.
