Dear Sisters, Brothers and Friends,
After a year of stalled negotiations, CUPW members made the difficult decision to walk the picket line for fair wages, safe working conditions, and the right to retire with dignity – basic rights that every worker deserves. They’re also fighting for the future of our public postal service.
Canada Post’s management and their allies want to close post offices, slash jobs, and make it harder to receive your mail. Canada Post is a public service and should not be parcelled off to private interests. It belongs to all of us. We can’t let that happen.
The MFL is holding a SHOW OF SOLIDARITY RALLY in support of postal workers who are out on strike for a fair deal! Please join us at 208 Provencher Blvd. in Winnipeg on Friday, December 13 at Noon to show your support.
In Solidarity,
Kevin Rebeck
President of the Manitoba Federation of Labour
