Canada could be hit by its second postal strike in six months 

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers has issued a strike notice for Friday. 

 

Whether it’ll be a full-scale walkout by the 55-thousand employees, or begin with rotating job action, has not yet been decided. 

 

The union’s notice comes after Friday’s release of an industrial commission report recommending Canada Post end door-to-door delivery, and institute weekend deliveries with part-time employees, as ways to solve its chronic financial situation. 

 

The commission was set up by Ottawa after it ended the month-long walkout in December.  

 

The union says the report is heavily-biased in favour of Canada Post.
