Are you suggesting that CP should be keeping all jobs no matter what, regardless of whether or not those people are needed?
No I'm not saying that at all, it just seems as though you are taking the stance that Canada post is suffering because of a decrease in mail service. While they have had a massive reduction in that area, likely more than the 60-70% you've mentioned, and one that will continue to decline, the fact of the matter is their parcel delivery service business has grown exponentially in that time and is more profitable than their mail service ever was.

So I don't know why people feel they should accept concessions in this current situation.
