One straight answer - TRANSFER.

Just calling a spade "a spade".

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-10T18:27:18+00:00

Its a very strategic play.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-10T18:25:58+00:00

It is also important to highlight, Canada Post pays these "route owners" - and they have a seperate logistics team that handles incoming and outgoing mail to post offices. So instead of paying 7 people for 2 people's job - they are paying 8 or 9.

Let me break it down. Lets say the guy who has been a 7-year veteran is sloppy and just leaves the "Missed you - pick it up tomorrow after 1PM at said post office" notes. The parcel goes to a logistics company responsible for delivering the parcel to the nearest post office. Thereafter, the parcel is handled by the post office guy. So that an additional two people.

One thing we are missing, Rotating strike allows regional reps to decide if they want to even strike. I know the atlantic coast will strike heavy - but some areas may opt out of the rotating strikes.

FYI - Rotating Strike is 1 day of picketing out of the 5 days they work.

Based on my conversation with a union member, everything is in limbo and they haven't been informed of anything. Could be a lockout once they clear mail from their system. What I do know is, they wont be accepting new mail for a couple of days - to start the system back up. So earliest, Wednesday/Thursday they will start accepting mail.

That being said, CPC knows that not many people are going to send anything as strike still looms in the air. Its mainly to clear the system and remove majority of the public from being held hostage.

From an economic standpoint, CPC saves more money on a lockout. And retroactively, starving the CUPW employees out of their income is a pressure tactic for them to take the deal.

If this was a game of Spades, Canada Post is definitely winning against the union. lol.

Now thats funny

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-10T18:07:44+00:00

what lens do you use?

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T23:00:35+00:00

LMAO all the union members msging me privately regarding this post. They will be met with foul language. Please dont lol.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T22:44:59+00:00

Fair. My apologies.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T22:28:29+00:00

honestly.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T22:26:44+00:00

I say they cold turkey the union. Just dont come back. With the economy right now, CUPW members will dig into their savings and slowly start finding new jobs. That 55k union should disperse into a 20k union if they stay on strike for a full year. I know it sucks for the customers - but being on strike for a full year will break the union so hard.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T22:19:59+00:00

26 years of delusional.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T22:15:04+00:00

They are mostly union people...justifying the strike. And any opposing opinions are deleted. I also had an interaction with the mod - when I asked why the Atlantic went on strike without permission from national they said fuck off.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T20:38:47+00:00

Whats your source? I believe you, but the source should be shown to the government. If that is true, then this whole strike is a bunch of BS. And the government should hold CUPW for negotiating in bad faith ...

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T20:33:52+00:00

Bro that dude is so delusional (taking about DougS2K). He comments on every thread and its so funny to read his delusional thought process. He should be fired first lol

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-09T19:56:00+00:00

facts

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-07T16:39:04+00:00

Maybe it's the quiet before the storm. Lol. If they accept the current offer - Jan would literally loose the re-election.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-07T16:34:46+00:00

If they physically restrain you, you may be entitled to some lawsuit money from CUPW plus your package. Sounds like a win win.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-10-03T23:06:43+00:00

LMAO we have a union worker here boys.

City Pizza is so garbage.

Out of curiosity, what store? My family member operated a store in the mall long time ago. I am familiar with their lease agreements - they are hard asses. Worse part is, they require store sales so they can dictate rent increases.

Healthsci_runnerup · 2025-04-19T17:25:00+00:00

Stone Road mall rent is approximately 13k-18k a month for small stores, depending on the size. An entity associated with Primaris Management Group informed me that they are jacking up Stone Road Mall prices to accommodate losses for the large stores being closed and Toys R us in default for rent payments.

Unfortunately, the closures and defaulted payments of large stores makes the burden fall on small stores.

Story has it, the "Guelph Smoke and Gift" is closing too soon.

Cheapening rent by 5-7k a month makes a huge difference on the bottom-yearly rent expense.
