Further to EER 47, the designated operator of Canada, Canada Post, wishes to inform countries and their designated operators that Canada Post will welcome back employees represented by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) on October 11th 2025, as the union moves from a full, national strike to rotating strikes. To ensure a safe and orderly restart of our national operations, Canada Post invites designated operators to resume sending mail to Canada no earlier than Monday October 13th. While postal services will resume next week, uncertainty and instability in the postal service will continue with the union’s decision to conduct rotating strikes. Customers should expect delays and occasional interruptions during the rotating strikes, as Canada Post processes the backlog and stabilizes its operations, with best efforts to resume the flow of items through our network.
