“carried” WHEREAS the report of the Canada Post
Corporation Strategic Review (CPCSR) recommends that the current moratorium on
post office closures in rural and small towns be replaced with a mechanism
involving new rules and procedures, including the ability to replace public post
offices with private outlets; AND WHEREAS the report also
recommends that rural mailbox delivery be reconsidered; AND WHEREAS these recommendations, if
implemented by the Federal Government, would undermine public postal service and
jobs in our community and fundamentally change the nature of Canada Post’s
retail and delivery network; AND WHEREAS the report proposes that
Canada Post’s highly inadequate consultation process be used when closing or
rationalizing a post office / outlet and that a similar process be used when
replacing rural mailbox delivery with delivery to a community box, green box or
post office; NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the
Council of the Village of Glenboro write Rob Merrifield, the Minister
responsible for Canada Post, and request that the government preserve public
postal service and jobs in our community by rejecting CPCSR recommendations that
would put an end to the moratorium on post office closures in rural and small
towns and give Canada Post the flexibility to close post offices covered by the
current moratorium or convert these public post offices to private outlets as
well as cut delivery to rural mailboxes without exploring all options or
properly consulting with residents or the representatives of rural delivery
workers; AND FURTHER BE IT RESOLVED that we
request that Minister Merrifield consult with the public, postal unions and
other major stakeholders to develop a uniform and democratic process for making
fundamental changes to Canada Post’s retail and delivery network.
