Concern is being voiced by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers Union about Bill C-44. If approved, the bill would partially de-regulate Canada Post by removing international letters from the corporation’s exclusive privledge to handle letters. Grievance Officer Al Arsenault tells CHSJ News, revenue lost to the corporation of this bill passes is between 80-100 million dollars.
Arsenault adds this will also affect jobs from this city to Victoria. The union will hit the streets over the next few weeks gathering signatures to try and stop passage of the bill.
