    This sounds illegal… Also kinda pointless since they aren’t paying the workers while they’re on strike.

      It might shake a few votes loose when it comes to a union vote on a contract.

      They are sending a message… From their perspective, clearly not pointless, they wouldn’t do it otherwise.

    “About 55,000 ROE were sent to Service Canada but not to individual members due to the current lack of mail delivery” lmao

      I’m pretty sure they’re legally required to send that to the employees — which means couriers.

    Who’s going to buy Canada Post? Amazon, Fedex or UPS?
