Labour Council Supports Postal Workers


The Saint John District Labour Council joining CUP-W in their rally. 

President Ron Oldfield tells CHSJ News the council believes this is a fight for every public worker, not just for Canada Post. 

He says free collective bargaining is the main stay of the system, and if that is lost then it will be hard for anyone to negotiate a fair contract.

Oldfield says it was Canada Post that decided to lock the workers out, and they're the ones that should be penalized for that, not the Union.
