ITT: people more interested in getting their shit than they are in solidarity.

I guess Canada Post is correct to relax the strike to appease people like that, but I'm disappointed that they feel the need to. Y'all need to suck it up and attribute the blame where it belongs: on the government for failing to capitulate to the workers' demands.

It’s not Canada Post relaxing the strike, it’s CUPW (the postal workers union). The reason they’re doing this (IMO) is that they don’t want to cause a huge mail backlog going into the holiday season. They are afraid of turning the public against them.

Ive been waiting on really important paperwork from the government. I'm really glad that at least some things might be getting sent.

Update: CP seems to think things will start getting out next Tue but people should be reminded that it was CP the initiated the previous lock out.

Canadians should start receiving mail again on Tuesday, after Canada Post workers shift from nationwide strike action to a rotating strike on Saturday morning.

That's not a great abbreviation to use for Canada Post. Too many other things share those initials.

Oh ya, Canada Post is on strike.

Thank goodness, I have a Radon kit I’ve been itching to get reviewed for a while now.

Thank goodness! I was running low on firestarter!
