By Rosalind Russell – Canada Post has received notice the Minister of Jobs and Families has approved its request for a ratification vote to take place on the company’s final offers to the Canadian Union of Postal Workers, using her authority under the Canada Labour Code.
According to the release, the vote will be administered by the Canada Industrial Relations Board as soon as possible and will give employees the opportunity to have their say on Canada Post’s final offers.
The vote comes as the parties remain at an impasse after 18 months of negotiations, a national strike and an Industrial Inquiry Commission which detailed the challenges and what needs to be done to begin addressing them.
Canada Post presented final offers to employees in the bargaining units on May 28, 2025 with the vote will take place on these offers.
