Labour Minister Steven MacKinnon is sending the labour dispute between Canada Post and the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) to the Canada Industrial Relations Board.

MacKinnon said Friday that if the board determines negotiations between the parties are at an impasse, it has been directed to order striking CUPW members back to work under the existing collective agreement until May 22, 2025.

My guess is that the big losers in all this will be people in remote places who rely on Canada Post. The legacy media will spin this as being the union's fault when it's really a failure to pay workers a liveable wage.

When the next Conservative government comes in, we'll see further budget cuts to postal services, and eventually they'll be dismantled because they'll be hamstrung and next to useless.
