Local CUPW Not Enthused About Back To Work Legislation

The Canadian Union of Postal Workers says thing are not looking good them once back-to-work legislation get enacted and an arbitrator is brought in to settle their dispute with Canada Post.

Local President Wally Moore tells CHSJ News the government appointed arbitrator will be choosing either Canada Post's offer or the unions -- and he's pretty sure how things will turn out.

He says the corporation will get everything they want and the Union and workers will get none of the things they want.
He says government involvement has already cost the union a bump in wages -- as the back-to-work legislation includes wage increases that are even lower than what Canada Post was offering.
