Canada Post and the union representing approximately 55,000 postal workers have reached a tentative agreement to end a nationwide strike that has severely disrupted mail delivery across the country. The Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) announced that all parties have agreed on the main points of the deal, leading to the suspension of strike actions. However, the final terms of the agreement have not yet been disclosed.
The union emphasized that the next step is to finalize the contractual language that will form the collective agreements, which will then be put to a vote by union members. CUPW also stated that it will retain the right to strike until the new agreements are ratified. Canada Post confirmed the deal is pending union approval and said that all strike and lockout activities have been suspended while the details are finalized.
The strike began on September 25, 2025, after the federal government announced major reforms at Canada Post, including ending door-to-door mail delivery for about four million homes, shifting non-urgent letter mail from air to ground transport, closing some rural post offices, and allowing the postal service more flexibility to raise prices. These changes were proposed to address Canada Post’s financial struggles, as the service lost C$1 billion last year and is projected to lose C$1.5 billion this year.
