So, the question I have is, how can we help the postal workers and encourage the government to actually make Canada Post work?

    At this point, by writing letters to our MPs, expressing clearly what we want to see happen and what we don't. For example that we want to see Section 107 gone and Canada Post funded. Slightly further into the future, by following the NDP leadership election and voting in it so we can get a stronger alternative during the next federal election, one that will support Canada Post's workers.

    I know that the fed NDP and the BCNDP are not the same party, but seeing the betrayal union workers are facing in BC under an NDP government is really shaking any sort of hope I've had for a party that truly gives any fucks about the people. I'll continue to support federally but just feel so hesitant and pessimistic about it all.

    It's why participating in shaping parties before elections is important. David Eby is a lawyer. Currently there's a union guy running for a federal NDP leather. Pessimism is healthy and warranted. It's why we should act when there's opportunity for improvment.

    The BC NDP has been taken over by corporate toadies. It's NDP in name only.

    The federal party? We'll have to wait and see.
