Potential Canada Post Strike

On behalf of the mailroom staff I would like to bring your attention towards a potential strike by the Canada Post Postal Workers effective early next week.

The Postal Workers Association is in legal standing to go on strike from Monday, October 22, 2018 onwards. Based on the news on TV Channels (CP24) a rotating strike is being planned in the early stages of the strike leading to a potential overall strike across all depots. We are hoping for a settlement between the management and the workers association. In lieu of this, the mailroom at the North and Lakeshore campuses will still do their daily mail runs however processing of any outgoing mail will depend on how Humber gets impacted by the strike. We will keep you posted as to updates around this strike and its impacts to mail service here at Humber.

We request, until the strike is settled, that you please check with the mailroom staff at x4443 (North) and x3245 (Lakeshore) before processing/planning any major outgoing mail as the mailroom is unable to store large mailings due to space shortage. Thank you.
