The Canadian Government has begun a "Strategic Review" of your Post Office. This review will look at deregulating your Post Office. This can result in less service and higher prices to the public and small business, but better service and lower costs to big companies and large-volume mailers.
This is not the post office we want!
There will be no public hearings.
The public, the real owners of the Post Office, will not have their say.
They do not want your opinion.
Tell them anyway.
What you can do:
- Come out to the Public Forum / Rally at the Grand Parade Square tomorrow.
- Before September 2nd, 2008 write to the Review Panel chaired by Mr. Robert Campbell (e-mail info@cpcsr-esscp.gc.ca and cc your MP)
- Write your MP today! Tell them you want deregulation off the table, demand public consultations on the future of Canada Post (http://www.upce.ca/en/pdf/Negotiations/stratReviewLetter_e.pdf)
If you are in anyway concerned about the future of Canada Post and in a way more importantly if you are outraged that the government is making these kinds of decisions behind closed doors, do something to stop them in their tracks!!!
I will be doing a short speech at tomorrows rally. If you are there because of what you have read here, come and say hi to me after the speeches.
I really believe in making a difference and taking a stand. Sometimes it is through personal discoveries, sometimes it is doing something like this talking about something I believe in.
One person, one voice... but it echos to many. Collective voices can THUNDER!
