I don't think that Canada Post will be privatized. But for the most part there is a courier network to most fairly small and remote population centers.

I do think that one of the leverage points was really the mass delivery boxes and the Trudeau Government basically killed them. But the government can really bring those back into the discussions privately and in the back room.

In terms of privatization, instead of that, I believe what will happen will be a shrinking of Canada Post and the cancellation of services at some point. Nobody will want to buy them, especially with a $6 billion dollar pension liability. Instead it will be allowed to wither and die, and Canada Post will simply be able to say, we don't want to do package deliveries, we have Purolator for that. The day of 8 hour work days for postal workers will eventually fade to this being a part time job due to being able to mass deliver mail to postal boxes.

The Union holds very little leverage in this whole thing. Basically from what I've seen, its not like when the Union used to be able to hold the country hostage every two yeas anymore. People are going lockout? Strike? who gives a crap.

So the real question is how long are the union members going to be willing to live on strike pay?
