A weekly 30-40 minute podcast devoted to all facets of the labour movement through the lens of the organizational model in Canada. Sorry for the extreme delay but two heart attacks for our host & creator in the past year have put us behind schedule
Teamsters Canada union members working at Purolator Courier (owned by Canada Post) will not handle any packages postmarked and/or identified as originating from Canada Post at any time throughout CUPWβs strike.

At least 67k small businesses on Shopify use Canada Post, and will be affected by them going on strike right on BFCM weekend. Canada Post has a government monopoly on delivering to P.O. boxes and is the only carrier supplying rural areas. This should not be allowed.
Shopify CEO Tobi Lutke is calling for the end of Canadaβs public postal service because its workers have gone on strike.
The companyβs leaders are increasingly pushing extreme right-wing positions in Canada. Gutting Canada Post would effectively end delivery in many rural and remote communities.
