Ongoing strikes at Canada Post target Stratford for second time

The ongoing rotating strike at Canada Post is hitting communities in southwestern Ontario again.

Canada Post says strikes on Wednesday impacted Niagara Falls, Stratford, Owen Sound, and Windsor.

Strikes continue in Toronto, Mississauga, Etobicoke, Brampton, Concord and at a distribution centre.

The union representing thousands of postal workers says the major issues include health and safety, staffing, job security, a reduction in precarious employment and fair wages.

Meanwhile, Canada Post has issued what it calls a “time-limited” contract offer to its employees in hopes of ending rotating strikes that have created a historic backlog of undelivered parcels.

The offer came just hours after online sales and auctioning giant eBay called on the federal government to legislate an end to the Canada Post contract dispute.
