IAM Canada – Defending the right to strike: The IAM stands with CUPW

Posted on

As the largest union in Canada’s aviation sector, representing workers across the country in a wide variety of functions and other federal sectors, including transportation, we believe in the fundamental rights of all workers. These rights include the freedom to strike, which is a cornerstone of advocacy for fair and equitable compensation, benefits, health and safety standards, and job security.

Recently, the right to strike for the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) has been revoked by the Canadian federal government, which intervened through back-to-work legislation, raising significant concerns about the ability of workers to negotiate for better working conditions.

This intervention followed a series of labor disputes between Canada Post and CUPW, during which the government imposed such legislation to end strikes and prevent disruptions in postal services. Such actions undermine workers’ ability to freely negotiate and advocate for their rights.

To address this critical issue, the IAM union has filed for Observer Status in the ongoing discussions. Our substantial interest lies in ensuring that the fundamental freedoms of workers are respected and upheld. The right to strike is not a privilege but a powerful tool that allows workers to stand up for their rights and foster meaningful dialogue with employers.

We stand united with all workers in their pursuit of better working conditions and a brighter future for all.
