Canada Post’s most recent financial report shows $1.3 billion in operating losses. But CUPW members say the corporation is using those losses as an excuse to avoid negotiating seriously.
Doesn’t this really mean it costs 1.3B?
As The North Star has previously reported, a large part of these losses are tied to infrastructure investments. These expenses are normally amortized over time and not included in annual losses.
Yeah, so costs. Sneaky corp fucks.
Canada Post is also using this deficit to push for the “Amazonification” of its services …
I don’t know what this means but including it because it sounds really really bad!
I believe the amazonification refers to forcing employees into the same shitty type of treatment pushed onto Amazon delivery drivers and external couriers, with unreasonable expectations on delivery, low pay, and generally treating their staff as extremely disposable.
Dont they interfere in all union strikes?
That was likely a big reason why the NDP got wiped out.
