CPAA has led its own campaigns and participated in others with our allies. Here are some of the issues we’re working on. We welcome your support!

NOTICE TO ALL POSTMASTERS
Subject: Maintaining Office Operations

This notice serves as a reminder and directive regarding office operations during lunches, breaks and Saturday hours.

 All efforts must be made to ensure postal services available to the public during posted business hours. This includes but is not limited to:

  • Utilizing relief staff or arranging temporary coverage whenever possible
  • Communicating with your Area or District Office for operational support
  • Filling available hours, even if it causes use of overtime, where staff are willing to work.

If you are facing an extreme staffing shortage and believe an office closure may be unavoidable, or if you have been instructed by CPC to close during these time, please contact your CPAA Branch immediately. Unauthorized closures may be subject to review and further action.

Our priority remains to serve the community reliably and uphold the integrity of our services.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Better Internet

Okay, maybe it’s not always this bad, but…

There’s a big gap between the quality of the internet services in Canada’s cities and the service we get in rural areas. We know our communities need this basic service to thrive in today’s world. The CPAA wants to be part of the solution to the digital rural-urban divide. We’ve been connecting Canada for over a century and are in the best position to keep doing that.

We’re gathering information and would like to hear from our members and from rural residents about getting internet services in your communities. Please contact us!
