  7. r/USPS locks down their subreddit due to #postalworkers calling for a #strike in protest of recent news that Musk-Trump is taking control of the post office has apparently caused an influx of postal workers looking to #organize a strike, which is currently illegal.

    “Effective immediately, r/USPS is on temporary lockdown due to an overwhelming influx of rule violations, most notably discussions regarding illegal work stoppages.“

  10. "For almost two weeks, 55,000 members of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) have been striking against concessions demanded by Canada Post. The CUPW is fighting for wage increases that match inflation, pension protection, and safe working conditions. The union warns that Canada Post’s push for part-time work and contracting out reflects a broader race-to-the-bottom in labor standards.

    The dispute is about more than postal workers — privatization and precarious work threaten union gains across different sectors. Amazon’s anti-union model, with its reliance on gig workers and independent contractors, has set a dangerous precedent for other companies, including Canada Post. By driving down wages and undermining labor protections, Amazon is pushing an approach that threatens workers everywhere. The CUPW’s vision for a revitalized, publicly oriented postal service is in direct conflict with Amazon’s corporate model, which erodes workers’ power and public goods alike."

  11. #CanadaPost workers are on #strike after failing to reach a negotiated agreement with their employer.

    #Canadian #Union of #PostalWorkers says approximately 55,000 workers are striking, claiming little progress has been made in the bargaining process.

    The Canadian Union of Postal Workers issued a 72-hour strike notice earlier in the week, saying it's been asking for fair wages, safer working conditions and other improvements over nearly a year of bargaining.

    "We still believe we can achieve negotiated collective agreements, but Canada Post must be willing to resolve our new and outstanding issues," the union said in a statement.
