Save Canada Post campaign rolls into Ontario

Save Canada Post campaign rolls into Ontario

The “Save Canada Post” campaign will be targeting Ontario this week as its protest caravan rolls into Timmins, North Bay and Scarborough. As previously reported, Canada Post is aiming to manage a shift from door-to-door deliveries to using community mailboxes in a bid to reduce costs in the light of declining mail volumes. The unions and political opposition parties are supporting the “Save Canada Post” to reverse the policy.

“Everywhere we go, we’re getting massive support and have collected thousands of signatures,” claimed Mike Palecek, National President of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. “People are telling us they value their public postal service and they want to keep it.”

The caravan will be stopping in Timmins at 10:00 a.m. local time today (Tuesday, 1 September) in front of the post office on Second Avenue.

In North Bay, a “town hall meeting” will be held tomorrow at 4: 30 p.m. at the Best Western on Lakeshore Drive. All federal candidates have been invited to attend.

In Scarborough, a Save Door-to-Door rally will be held in front of MP Roxanne James’s office on Friday from 12: 00 to 1:00 p.m (James voted down the NDP motion to save home delivery).
