Canada Post union leaders left frustrated by lack of answers at annual meeting
OTTAWA — Union leaders attending Canada Post’s annual meeting were left frustrated Friday as the Crown corporation refused to provide details on its calculations on the cost of the union’s latest contract proposals.
Canada Post has estimated the union’s position surrounding pensions and pay equity would cost $1 billion.
CUPW president Mike Palecek repeatedly asked Canada Post officials to spell out how they arrived at the number, but was told to ask his negotiating team for a breakdown.
Palecek replied that his negotiators have asked for a breakdown but have been stonewalled.
