Postal Workers Rank-and-File Committee

The Postal Workers Rank-and-File Committee is organising workers against Royal Mail’s attacks, for the defence of terms and conditions, an end to all job cuts and to defeat victimisations. We are opposed to the Communication Workers Union bureaucracy, which acts as Royal Mail’s partner. Information on the committee can be found here. We are affiliated to the International Workers Alliance of Rank-and-File Committees (IWA-RFC).

Canada’s ruling elite plotting massive full-time job cuts at Canada Post to make Crown corporation “profitable”

The long-running discussions about the need to eliminate thousands of full-time jobs, end daily delivery, and sell off post offices underscore that striking postal workers are not merely fighting for a new contract. Rather, they are embroiled in a political fight, which if it is to succeed must be based on an explicit rejection of capitalist austerity and the profit “principle.”

“Why are we even talking about a contract when it is never followed by the corporation?”: Canada Post strikers speak out from the picket line

“I've been with the post for almost nine years, eight of which are permanent full time, and I'm making just dollars above minimum wage,” a striker said. “With the cost of living rising, due to inflation brought to us by the Trudeau government, 11.5 percent is not an option over four years. 22 percent is very reasonable.”
