Canada Post Stands Firm Against Binding Arbitration Amid Labour Dispute

  Canada Post has rejected the Canadian Union of Postal Workers' (CUPW) request for binding arbitration, citing concerns over prolonged negotiations and financial instability. The Crown corporation stated that arbitration would be "long and complicated," potentially extending the uncertainty for over a year. The union had proposed arbitration as a means to resolve the ongoing labour dispute, arguing that it would be the fairest and most efficient path forward. However, Canada Post countered that a direct vote on its final offer would be a more effective way to ensure employees have a voice in the process. CUPW expressed disappointment over the rejection, stating that Canada Post's refusal demonstrates a lack of interest in reaching a reasonable agreement. The union warned that a forced vote may fail to resolve the conflict and could further divide workers, prolonging instability within the postal service. The dispute has been ongoing for over 18 months, with previous ...

Your lookahead horoscope: June 1, 2025

 

The skeptics and the cynics will come up with all sorts of reasons why you should curb your enthusiasm this year but you must ignore each and every one of them. Step up to the plate and hit every pitch they throw at you out of the park.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

If you concern yourself too much with what other people think about you it will leave less time and less energy to invest in the things that really matter. Pretend you can’t hear a word your critics are saying and listen to your instincts instead.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Why are you looking so serious? Whatever the reason you need to lighten up a bit, because you will only make a success of what you are working on if you have a smile on your face. Good humour is essential for good results.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

You may find it hard to put your feelings into words over the next few days but your body language will speak volumes and friends and colleagues will be left in no doubt what you think of them. Hopefully it’s good thoughts only!

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

The moment a friend or family member interferes in your personal affairs you must tell them to mind their own business, and make sure they can see that you mean it. Make it abundantly clear to them that your private life is off limits.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

You may have fallen behind a bit in your schedule but it’s no big deal. In fact it could work in your favor as it gives you time to reassess your aims and make some major adjustments. Not even a Leo always gets it right the first time.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Your thinking can be a bit too rational at times and that could cause problems when you are called on to deal with someone whose outlook on life is almost entirely emotional. You can’t help them if you are, in effect, talking a different language.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

You may think that a falling out with a friend or work colleague is trivial in the extreme but from their point of view it’s a pretty big issue. Pay attention to their complaints and find ways to defuse the situation without either of you losing face.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

The planets warn if you dwell too much on the past over the next few days you could miss out on a rare opportunity to cash in on your talents. Like it or not life has moved on and you must move with it or get left behind.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

If you give ground over a minor matter it is inevitable that rivals will see that as a sign of weakness and put even more pressure on you to abandon your goals. Stand firm and let them know you are not the easy touch they think you are.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Avoid people who only ever come up with reasons for not doing something. If you are going to reach the lofty goals you have set yourself you will need to surround yourself with like-minded souls, the ones who believe that all things are possible.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

If someone whose judgment you don’t think highly of comes up with an interesting idea don’t reject it out of hand. Even a stopped clock tells the correct time twice a day and this could be their one big insight that is worth paying attention to.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

Don’t make life harder for yourself than it needs to be. If you believe your efforts are more likely to fail than succeed then inevitably they will, so fill your mind with positive thoughts and your heart with the joy that comes from watching dreams come true.
